Tu Rangatahi, Tu Tangata
This new play is about the adventures of a young boy Rangirua and the choices he must make to complete his journey into the world of honesty, reliability and responsibility. Rangirua is caught stealing watermelons, lies about it and gets sick from eating too much! While he is sleeping the Taniwha Whakatika comes to take his wairua to Te Ao Pokiki (The World of Confusion). Rangirua and his kuri must battle the Taniwha to get back to Te Ao Marama (The World of Light). It is all up to Rangirua to make the right choices.
