Moored off-shore is a huge nowee (boat) then there are two, then more. Who are these visitors? Where are they from? What do they want? Should they be turned away by force or welcomed to country? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the playscript \u003cem\u003eThe Visitors\u003c\/em\u003e, Muruwari playwright Jane Harrison (\u003cem\u003eStolen, Rainbow's End\u003c\/em\u003e) reimagines the arrival of the First Fleet from a First Nations' perspective. These senior men, carrying the weight of cultural responsibility in their very human hearts, must decide what action they'll take toward these unwanted arrivals. A decision, under pressure, that will have repercussions' unforeseeably and forever. Told with wit, charm, and a fierce intelligence, Harrison's playscript upends the dominant point of view of this pivotal event. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnnotated and with an introduction by Wesley Enoch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e'I do not doubt that \u003c\/em\u003eThe Visitors \u003cem\u003ewill take its place alongside Stolen as a touchstone of Australian theatre, and as an essential part of the continuing struggle to make sense of colonisation and multigenerational trauma.' - Harriet Cunningham, Sydney Morning Herald\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 82\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.22 x 8.27 x 5.39 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 01, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44892904620134,"sku":"9781760626761","price":33.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/7255\/0758\/files\/NE4G8ZsdSH9781760626761.webp?v=1772928318","url":"https:\/\/infinitylightwa.com\/products\/the-visitors-paperback","provider":"Infinity Light","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
