A magical ballet of friendship and love set in the Australian bush during the historic gold rush.

Told entirely through the dance form of ballet, Gold is a journey through Australia's early migrant history and incorporates bush characters based on Indigenous flora and fauna, in an accessible, non-verbal mode of performance that will delight and engage.
