From Campfire to Stage Light, written by David ‘Bindi’ Hudson with Kathryn Ash and Cindy Hudson, is an epic journey towards self-determination and Indigenous pride, as told through the life experience of David Bindi Hudson, well-known and loved cultural leader and global ambassador for Indigenous Australia.

David is the ultimate storyteller, singer-songwriter, dancer, visual artist and actor and the performance is brought to life through storytelling, songs, and extraordinary visual design. The stories take us from David’s traditional lands to the international mega stages as David traversed the world musically, educating people about his culture. He co-founded the award-winning dance troupe ‘Tjapukai’, whose achievements include being Australia’s longest-running theatrical production.

David has emerged as a strong cultural leader with a significant arts practice. This play, directed by nationally recognised First Nations Director, Isaac Drandic, and featuring music and lyrics are by Nereace Howes, Nigel Pegrum and David Bindi Hudson, will take the audience on a culturally rich journey of Far North Queensland and the world.
