PROJECTS (outside of Auckland)

HE TOI

KUPU

A project-based community engagement programme in collaboration with Ahipoutu Collective that empowers local whānau, hapū and iwi to extract their own stories - ancient wisdoms and everyday happenings - and transform them into highly engaging, innovative, meaningful cultural artefacts (visual and performance), creating new legends.

Research. Reimagine. Reclaim.

MATAATUA

In collaboration with Te Wharekura o Mauao in Tauranga Moana, MATAATUA is a devised, bilingual theatre extravaganza that features singing, dance, haka and authentic storytelling and text (monologue and poetry), encouraging audiences to have faith in ourselves, find courage in the face of adversity, and take hold of the wisdom bestowed on us by those who came before.

FAITH. COURAGE. WISDOM.
