Theatre Royal - tarkara nipaluna

Created by award-winning palawa and Walpiri woman Nunami Sculthorpe-Green, takara nipaluna is a powerful tour teaching participants about palawa (Tasmanian Aboriginal) history and the city of nipaluna/Hobart. Nunami’s tour gives voice to the palawa perspective and continued presence within the modern city, exposing the layers of history beneath the asphalt. The walk follows the route taken in 1832 by members of the Aboriginal resistance, retracing their steps as they progressed to the old Government House to negotiate an end to the Black War.
