AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Yuyukatha is a musical and story-telling performance that takes you on a cultural journey. In the great Aboriginal tradition, Kutcha Edwards tells his incredible life's journey through a series of songs [and] stories - some funny, others heart rending. Kutcha shares his experience of the stolen generations as seen through the eyes of someone taken from the banks of the Murrumbidgee River as a young child. His music touches the soul and through his humour and insights we realize that with recognition of the true Aboriginal history, there can be hope of reconciliation.'
