Auckland Theatre Company have announced their 2025 Season featuring a captivating range of ideas and voices coming to Auckland next year!

TIRI: TE ARAROA WOMAN FAR WALKING by Witi Ihimaera comes to the ASB Waterfront Theatre from the 4 – 23 November 2025.

The 2025 Season closes out with a history-making new adaptation of the epic tale of Tiri Mahana, a 185-year-old matriarch, from her birth at the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi to present day Aotearoa.

For the first time, the play will be performed in two parts, English and te reo Māori, with both versions capturing the enduring spirit of Te Ao Māori.

With the multi-award-winning team of The Haka Party Incident creator Katie Wolfe (Ngāti Mutunga, Ngāti Tama) and actor Miriama McDowell (Ngāti Hine, Ngāpuhi); Witi Ihimaera’s (Te Whanau a Kai and Ngāti Porou) extraordinary play will shine once again, re-imagined in te reo Māori by Maioha Allen and company.
