Acknowledgment of country

Polyglot acknowledges that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are the Traditional Custodians of the lands on which we live and create, and we pay our respects to Elders past and present. For more than 65,000 years, children and families have created and played here, and we are grateful to make our art on this country too.

Rainbow Sweeny

Rainbow has worked in the performing arts and cultural sector for over 20 years. Her role at Polyglot is broad and varied, encompassing the delivery of an extensive touring repertoire, and steering the development and presentation of new work. Prior to her current role, she was a freelance production and tour manager for the company. She finds great joy in touring Polyglot’s work to communities around the world, and on every occasion appreciates that although their cultures differ, children’s love of creative play is universal.
