Hinepau
Capital E National Theatre for Children - New Zealand
World Premiere
Poor Hinepau, sent away from her village for being different just because she has red hair, green eyes and does inside-out weaving. Her friends think she is a witch and are mean to her, but when they annoy the gods by cutting down a totara tree without saying the proper karakia (prayer), guess who they ask to help?
What to expect:
Hinepau is a hip new show set in an old time. It's funny, it's a bit sad and it has a good message about life and the land. It's based on the book Hinepau by award-winning New Zealand writer/illustrator Gavin Bishop. Adapted for the stage by Rachel House and puppet direction by Peter Wilson.
