Performer Biography:
Lisa Tui Jonathan (Tainui, Ngāti Wairere, Ngāti Kahungunu) has a background in singing, song writing and musical theatre that spans genres: classical, some jazz, gospel, country, funk, and blues. For Lisa, performance is a quest to share stories and create connection.
A committed teacher, she has taught and facilitated singing for 22 years in many different settings: from delivering workshops in prisons (with Arts Access Aotearoa) to working with music theatre and contemporary vocal students at Te Pūkenga Ōtautahi. Her love for taonga pūoro began while studying New Zealand music at the University of Otago. Since then, she has been playing to learn with Mahina Kingi-Kaui in the ensemble Pou Ataata. Lisa has a degree in performing arts (music theatre), a diploma in teaching music in a studio setting, and is a qualified NLP Trainer for Practitioners.
Lisa is currently undertaking a three month creative residency at Te Matatiki Toi Ora The Arts Centre.
Cost: General admission $35 | Concessions (students, seniors) $30.
