Mauī - The Trickster

Poetry, song and dance, riotous rhythms and rhymes; all of these elements come together in our performance piece; Mauī -The Trickster. We have worked hard, writing individually or collaboratively, working out chords of songs and making beats, and dancing, dancing, dancing.

We have learnt a great deal about the Mauī myths, how they connect to the Pacific in ancient, and now in more modern times. We discovered that Mauī is multifaceted, trickster and trouble make yes, but also hero, shapeshifter, dreamer, provocateur and agent of change. Mauī is a part of us all; or we are all part Mauī. We are very excited about presenting our work to Whānau next week. See you at the show!
