Nukututaha by Lord Niue

“Nukututaha” by Lord Niue

After premiering at Auckland's Pacific Dance Festival, Lord Niue brings this new work back to Naarm! An hour long solo experience that explores a modern-day Niuean living in the diaspora. Nukututaha is translated as “Niue stands alone”, which is why the solo component is so important - Tagata Niue (people of Niue) are a minority within the minority Tagata Pacific (people of the Pacific).

'This story creates awareness around what Tagata Niue may look and feel like in today's society through one's lens. The struggles and joy through being ‘alone’, but also finding comfort in who they are and where they come from.

DISCLAIMER:

This is a family friendly event, however some music in the show will be explicit.
