Night Sky was, like The Prophet: Remix, a production with both professional and non-professional artists from Bankstown in Western Sydney. Individuals and groups were commissioned to respond to the central idea of night sky, dusk, the moon, transitions and migration – I wrote the above poem as a sort of provocation for them. They came back with poems, songs, music, comedy sketches, dance and stories. My job was to put them together into some sort of coherent show and include a few large set pieces with them all as an ensemble. We performed the show over three nights outside in the courtyard of Bankstown Arts Centre in November 2017.
