Thomas Riccio has set himself no easy task. It is the aim of his research to eventually incorporate elements of aboriginal performance into traditionally Western performance, liberating it from its shackles and making it a more spiritual, more intense and it should be said, more natural experience for the audience.

Perhaps, in the process, the audience themselves may be more empowered to counter the alienation gradually overtaking Western culture.
