A celebration of storytelling live on stage, featuring writers and thinkers from Aotearoa New Zealand and across the world. Seven performers each have seven minutes to present a story about someone who saved their lives – literally or figuratively.
Intimate, confronting, nail-biting, joyful and poignant, take a seat as our storytellers share their tales of life, near-death and survival and the lessons learned.
Guest performers: Shilo Kino (Ngāpuhi, Ngāti Te Ata, Ngāti Maniapoto); Tina Makereti (Te Ātiawa, Ngāti Tūwharetoa, Ngāti Rangatahi-Matakore, Pākehā); Afra Atiq, Matariki Bennett (Ngāti Pikiao, Ngāti Whakaue); Miriama McDowell (Ngāti Hine, Ngāpuhi); Dominic Hoey; Silvia Park.
Supported by the Emirates Airline Festival of Literature and Literature Translation Institute of Korea.
