The Visitors
Visitors leave, right?
On a sweltering day in January 1788, seven clan leaders gather on a sandstone escarpment overlooking Sydney harbour. But beyond the friendly banter, protocols and hospitality, a momentous decision is waiting to be made. A mysterious fleet of nawi (giant boats) is amassing in the harbour and as it creeps closer, these representatives must choose unanimously: whether to send these strangers on their way or welcome them?
Following its international premiere in New York, we’re privileged to host this riveting, deeply researched insight into one of the most impactful and painful days in Australia’s history. The Visitors is a hugely entertaining study of how communities respond to change and the unknown.
