      Te Tangi a Te Tūi invites you to experience an enchanting and empowering Te Reo Māori cirque theatre work about adaptation and authenticity.This collaboration between kaupapa Māori theatre company, Te Pou Theatre and circus theatre company, The Dust Palace, is an evocative narrative of love and loss between Maori and the natural world in the face of colonial impact. Performed in Te Reo Māori.

      He karanga no te kainga. Pulling us heart first back to the ngahere. The Tūi soaks up the world around it and responds in song. Though beautiful, its tune is now a faint echo of what it once was when Aotearoa was blanketed in the ngahere, flutes of patupaiarehe filled the trees and Māori alone walked gently upon their mother.

      Recommended ages 10+. Depictions of physical combat. Contains strobe lighting and haze effects

      This performance was made possible with the support of the Freemason's Foundation, the Sargood Bequest and the Bay of Islands Whangaroa Community Board.
