On its premiere in 1995, this play was a radical act of Aboriginal theatre-making. Thirty years later Yirra Yaakin Theatre Company will perform a brand-new production of The 7 Stages of Grieving for WA audiences for the ﬁrst time. A woman stands alone on stage. Over one gripping hour, she traces seven phases of Aboriginal history – Dreaming, Invasion, Genocide, Protection, Assimilation, Self- Determination, and Reconciliation. Mailman and Enoch’s script is a potent expression of resilience and survival, as well as humour, joy and strength. Don’t miss out on this rare opportunity to see this powerful story of Aboriginal Australia. ❤️ BREC presents THE SEVEN STAGES OF GRIEVING by Wesley Enoch and Deborah Mailman 🎭 Performed by Shontane Farmer 📍 Bunbury Regional Entertainment Centre - Cube Theatre 📆 THURSDAY 13 August 2026 | 7:30pm ⚠️ Patron Advice: Contains coarse language and adult themes.
