It's 2015, and it's bigger and grander than ever, as a new crop of students from South East Queensland bring their culture and stories to life through dance and song. Over four weeks, the largest-ever group of Aboriginal teenagers train under Australia's finest Aboriginal dancers from Bangarra Dance Theatre, creating a dance based on a story from their Elders, culminating in a performance before thousands, live on stage and on television, as part of Creative Generation – State Schools Onstage.
