Ngunguru I Te Ao I Te Po

Synopsis:
In this original production, audience members will embark on an adventure into the oceanic depths, rocky shore lines and pristine beaches of the East Coast Aotearoa. This is the place where the waves ceaselessly roll in and the tides ebb and flow to the rhythm of the moon. Here in the heart of Te Moananui a Kiwa meet five mischievous and fun creatures as they reveal the beauty of their watery home. Taki Rua Productions presents the story of the children of Tangaroa as they battle a terrifying oil slick. With a little help from Tangaroa's mighty current and the legendary taniwha, Kai Whare, will they be saved? Festival Producer Melanie Hamilton says, "Ngunguru I Te Ao I Te Po is a high energy, physical performance where waiata and dance meet in a unique and humorous theatre experience that celebrates Te Ao M?ori." For 27 years Taki Rua Productions has been an arts industry leader - a creative rule breaker, unpredictable and unconventional, challenging and evolving the definition of M?ori theatre. Taki Rua Productions connects New Zealand heritage, past and present and ensure the foundation for M?ori voices to be heard world wide. Taki Rua is a call to audiences and artists to celebrate and share stories that define and challenge the essence and perceptions of who we are as the indigenous culture of Aotearoa.
