Taki Rua Theatre – Breaking Barriers tells the story of our unofficial Māori national theatre and the 30 year struggle to create a truly bicultural force in live theatre and society, and the wāhine toa and activists who agitated for a better world. From humble beginnings, Taki Rua presents a depth of talent powerful enough to take the voice of Māori across the nation and to the world.

Steeped in symbolism and no larger than a child’s hand, the diminutive bird known as the Armea is found in only one place on Earth: the Pacific island of Rotuma.
