Ta'alili and Pacific Dance Festival presents MANU MALO.
A debris of memories reveals the accumulation of community and the evolution of language from the tongue through the body. For Tapu, this language mimics the climate of the ocean and sky, dancing and speaking in the rhythm of nature’s song, sitting close to the earth, holding it close to the chest and listening to the ocean wash dreams ashore. Tapu enters the stage with family, friends and guests from Samoa, Aotearoa/New Zealand and Hamburg. Between dreams and imaginings, the performers return to an origin that is undefined, remembering the history they are bringing to the stage, and search for moments of being one.
A co-production with K3 | Tanzplan Hamburg and Pacific Dance NZ.
Funded by Creative NZ, Peacocke Dance Trust and Hamburgische Kulturstiftung.
