Breaking cycles of silence. Ya'djin Spirit Women is the first full-length production from The First Creatives – a multidisciplinary, intergenerational work led by First Nations women. Born from the creation of the Ya'djin Women's Collective – a grassroots sisterhood of First Nations women survivors of sexual assault and domestic and family violence – the production is grounded in the shared stories of two Aunties from the group. It weaves dance, theatre and film to traverse colonial violence, dispossession, abuse, motherhood, Blak joy, connection to Country and healing. Ya'djin, meaning 'speak', is both a call and a commitment – to truth-telling, resistance and breaking cycles of silence. This unapologetic work honours the Aunties who created this space and offers a pathway for healing – calling on our men to stand tall and listen deep – coming together to create safer futures for our jarjums, our way. Ya'Djin Spirit Women is part of Clancestry.
