Migrants' flight towards dreams in the horizon
A Conversation and Storytelling Session
Arriving at the airport, migrants bring with them dreams of a better life in a foreign land.
Whether they are economic migrants, international students, queer migrants, families seeking reunification, or expatriates, they carry with them hopes that the flight they have just taken will lead them to a thriving life.
This will be a relaxed, performance-based storytelling session led by speakers Arpita Das, Beth Yahp, Sujith Kumar Prankumar, Sukhmani Khorana and Quah Ee Ling.
These speakers will share their stories on why they have taken a flight or several flights to pursue their dreams, what post-migration life has been for them and whether their dreams have been fulfilled since arrival.
Towards the end of the session the audience will be invited to share their flight and migration stories.
This Storytelling session Migrants’ flight towards dreams in the horizon at Casula Powerhouse Arts Centre has been developed by Western Sydney University and Casula Powerhouse Art Centre.
The event will take place in the Performance Space and light refreshments are included.
