Interview
SmartArts: Whitefella Yella Tree with Declan Greene
Richard is joined by co-director Declan Greene of play Whitefella Yella Tree, who speaks to the production of this impactful play.
A First Nations queer love story, Declan discusses how he approached directing the play, and why it was important to bring Wiradjuri and Worimi theatremaker Amy Sole on as co-director. Declan emphasises the importance of amplifying First Nations voices, and platforming stories that never had the chance to be shared with the world.
UMAC presents Griffin Theatre Company’s Whitefella Yella Tree 13-15 November.
