From our unique place in Moana Oceania, Neil Ieremia directs and choreographs a reimagining of Gluck’s dance opera masterpiece Orpheus and Eurydice. Starring Kiwi-Samoan baritone Samson Setu, Aotearoa New Zealand soprano Deborah Wai Kapohe, and Europe-based New Zealand-Samoan soprano Madison Nonoa, (m)Orpheus is performed in English and features a cast and ensemble of outstanding Māori and Pasifika performers.

With a world designed by renowned costume and set designer Tracy Grant Lord (NZ Life and Leisure, July/August 2023) this is one not to be missed. Tickets are still available for the three remaining Auckland shows and three Wellington shows.
