The New Zealand wars have come to an end, the pandemic has ravaged the country and Hine Hōia stands at the precipice of a world in tatters, until a chance encounter will change her life forever.
Programme
A contemporary revisiting of Stravinsky’s ‘The Soldier’s Tale’
Artists
Juanita Hepi – Director
Danny Lee Syme, choreographer
In this magical re-imagining of The Soldier’s Tale by Stravinsky, Ngāi Tahu/Ngātiwai writer and director Juanita Hepi and Cirko Kali’s Danny Lee Syme reunite with composer Hamish Oliver to bring you this epic saga of love, greed, trickery, tradition, and triumph.
Drawing on themes and forms from Māori oral history, storytelling, taonga pūoro, circus, and chamber music, Hine Hōia is a story for everyone, asking us what we’d be willing to give up for fame and fortune?
