Awhi Tapu

Work:: Awhi Tapu (S01415610169)

The UK debut of one of New Zealand's most exciting Maori playwrights. Set in a tiny forestry town in New Zealand, three Maori blokes tell each other stories of their own lives, and that of the mute young girl. The guys dare to dream that their story should reach the rest of the world, and imagine telling it as a blockbuster Hollywood picture. As they tell their tales, they play the roles of the rest of the community and bring to life some of the more dangerous inhabitants of the town. Out of the humour comes a dark tale of abuse and tragedy which leads to a fiery conclusion.
