MĀUI by Fresh Movement
Choreographed by Hadleigh Pouesi, Christopher Ofanoa and Leilani Elliott, this powerful production is a retelling of the legends of Māui using the language of dance, music, projected film sequences and graphic illustrations. “At such a young age we let go of the mythology, the Māori stories, the Pacific stories… MĀUI is about revisiting the Pacific tales that we’ve been told in primary school and kindergarten.” Fusing hip-hop, Pacific, Māori and contemporary dance and covering themes of strength, growth, leadership and vulnerability, MĀUI explores the stories that have travelled throughout the Pacific for hundreds of years, re-told like never before.
