Ngai Tahu 32 is a one hour multi-layered performance with a unique integration of contemporary Maori dance choreography, video projection, set design and a powerful sound-score incorporating waiata (traditional song), haka (traditional war dance) and karanga (a women's call of welcome).

Carrying the coins for the sale of his land and the wairua of a girl who shines brightly on the horizon, Ngai Tahu 32 tells the story of one man’s journey from Te Waiora a Tane (the living waters of Tane)... to the next generation. As he travels through a series of tukutuku patterns, sometimes described as “the oceans between the carvings”, he leaves behind him a trail of history, whakapapa, creation and imagination.

Ngai Tahu 32 not only reflects thoughts and experiences of contemporary Maori, but is a universal tale of struggle, loss, and ultimately, redemption.
