TRADITIONALLY, when Indigenous Australians pass away, a ceremony takes place. While it differs from place to place, it usually involves a gathering of people, song and dance.<\/p>\n

But for the communities who died during British colonisation, that didn’t happen. There was nobody left to perform the ceremonies.<\/p>\n

Dancer and choreographer Thomas E.S. Kelly<\/a> aims to rectify that in his acclaimed solo work, Kuramanunya,<\/a> which is coming to Byron Theatre<\/a> next month.<\/p>\n

Through movement, spoken word and sound, the show honours First Nations ancestors whose stories were cut short, offering a precise and quietly powerful act of remembrance.<\/p>\n

“It’s a ceremony for those who didn’t get their ceremony,” Kelly said. “There’s a lot of communities in Australia, including here, where groups of First Nations people didn’t survive the British colonisation. There are clan groups that were completely massacred; family lines that ended. There are places where you can’t get a Welcome to Country because those people don’t exist anymore.”<\/p>\n

The Gold Coast-based Minjungbal, Wiradjuri and Ni-Vanuatu artist, who also stars in the new ABC Kids TV show Dance with Tom, became interested in the performing arts while a student at Kingscliff High School.<\/p>\n

He considered studying at NIDA before learning about NAISDA Dance College, Australia’s leading performing arts training organisation for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students, where singer Christine Anu also studied.<\/p>\n

After graduating in 2012, he began creating and performing his own works, driven by a love of storytelling.<\/p>\n

He and his wife, Taree Sansbury, whom he met at NAISDA, founded Karul Projects in 2017 after their breakthrough opportunity came when PACT theatre in Erskineville created a residency program for emerging companies.<\/p>\n

Karul means “everything” in Yugambeh language, spoken in South-East Queensland and North-East NSW, covering Country between the Logan River in the north and the Tweed River in the south.<\/p>\n

“I will use everything I need to tell whatever story needs to be told,” Kelly said.<\/p>\n

While Sydney-based Bangarra Dance Theatre is Australia’s best-known Indigenous dance company, Kelly wanted to create an alternative pathway, which led the couple to relocate and establish their work outside Bangarra’s established base.<\/p>\n

After performing to sold-out audiences in Brisbane, for NORPA (Northern Rivers Performing Arts)<\/a> and at the Commonwealth Games on the Gold Coast, they decided to return to the region where he grew up.<\/p>\n

Being based on the Queensland side of the border also opened up access to funding opportunities that Bangarra could not apply for.<\/p>\n

Kelly hadn’t originally planned to create a solo work, but it came about after his wife became pregnant.<\/p>\n

Kuramanunya was first performed at the Brisbane Festival in 2023 and won the Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Award at the 2026 Adelaide Fringe.<\/p>\n

It will be Kelly’s last major solo work before stepping away from the stage when his daughter starts school next year, as he takes a step back from touring to focus on family commitments.<\/p>\n

“It’s my heaviest work because of the content that we talk about,” he said.<\/p>\n

“It’s truth telling in a matter of fact way. I’m not saying that it’s anyone’s fault. I feel we’re all better moving forward and learning together. I’m offering a chance to learn and if you take one thing out of it then you have something.”<\/p>\n

The audience is often so moved by the performance that they embrace him at the end of the show.<\/p>\n

“It’s quite beautiful,” he said. “People have really responded well to the work.”<\/p>\n

Kuramanunya is at Byron Theatre at 7pm on Friday 1 May.<\/p>\n
