The Chooky Dancers
A unique dance piece that features splashes of aerobics and a sprinkle of comedy.
Overview
Combining traditional Indigenous dance with a contemporary version of Zorba the Greek may sound a little bizarre but believe me, the end product is hilarious. You've probably already heard of The Chooky Dancers who shot to YouTube stardom with their clip that was uploaded in 2007. Today, the clip has been viewed more than 2 million times. The Chooky Dancers presented their unique dance on multiple television segments, including Australia's Got Talent and at the Melbourne Comedy Festival Gala in 2009 to a captivated and giggly audience.
This group of talented performers hail from the remote Northern Territory community of Elcho Island (Galiwin'ku community). After managing to make audiences laugh across the world at their surprising fusion of tradition, comedy and contemporary music and dance, the Chooky Dancers are in Brisbane for their latest performance, Djuki Mala. Their performance features splashes of acrobatics, mixed with dance theatre and a sprinkle of comedy. Do check it out.
