NORPA, Media Release, 16 April 2026

We’re honoured to partner with SBS to share the broadcast of My Cousin Frank — one of Rhoda Roberts AO’s final performances.

A NORPA production, recorded live at Sydney Opera House in December last year, My Cousin Frank is written and performed by Rhoda. It tells the story of Francis “Frank” Roberts, Australia’s first Aboriginal Olympian, and speaks to the enduring strength of family, culture and resistance.

We are proud to help carry Rhoda’s voice, story and spirit forward.
