Shows & Projects

Following a 2024 cancellation, Big Country Puppets finally rescheduled a second collaboration with Ngurrara Rangers to re-tell the story of Jilji the Skink, originally developed in 2022 with the rangers, Walmajarri elders and Yakanarra Community School.

Sandfly Circus hit the road with their show Sandstorm. They toured to two remote communities, Djarindjin-Lombadina and Bidyadanga, with performances held at the schools during school hours.

At the end of Term 3, Dragonfly Outreach visited Bayulu Community for the first time in over ten years.

2025's major Sandfly Circus production was written and directed by hometown circus favourite Georgia Deguara and her team from YUCK Circus. In true Kimberley spirit, the show told a tale about what Kimberley kids love - great adventures out bush!

In July and August, we returned to Beagle Bay Aboriginal Community for our annual three-week residency at Sacred Heart School, our seventh consecutive year! Returning project artists, Will Tredinnick and Chelsea Quaill, Flying Fruit Fly Circus graduate, were joined by former Sandfly, Crystal Stacey.

In 2025, we delivered a different project format with longstanding partner, Yiramalay Studio School in the Wunaamin Miliwundi Ranges, 80km from Fitzroy Crossing. Broome-based artist Jacky Cheng led a three-part residency following on from her overwhelming success with Yiramalay students on previous TK projects.

TK turned 30 in 2025, and while the busyness of the dry season meant a delay of our birthday party, at least you can have cake with your friends! Which is exactly what the Bust Out team did to honour this important TK milestone!

The circus returned to Bidyadanga’s La Grange Remote Community School for the fourth consecutive year with a two-week residency led by Will Tredinnick and Bunbury circus dynamos Isaac Salter and Michèle Lainé.
