✨ KARE TAO ✨ “Ko Tawhito Kī, Ko Tawhito Wānanga, Ko Tawhito Kōrero”
🎭 The carved karetao have stirred from their taonga puoro slumber— siblings with a story to share, each with their own version of how it all began. Inspired by the ancient whakapapa of karetao, this powerful new theatre work explores themes of family, belonging, and identity through a uniquely Māori lens.
With special mātauranga from karetao artists James Webster and Hinemoa Jones, with the guidance from Whetu Silver and dramaturgy by Cian Parker. Karetao breathes life into a rarely seen form of Toi Māori.
Part pūrākau, part puppet theatre, this groundbreaking production reimagines the future of karetao—offering audiences an unforgettable journey into the heart of story, spirit, and sound.
