Who has seen the nest of the kuaka?
Ko wai ka kite I te hua o te kuaka?
Who has ever held the egg of the kuaka? Interwoven with her lecture is the tale of Jack, a young man trying to save his dry and dying apple trees. Visited in a dream by his great granny, she tells him to follow his heart, look for the ‘‘boy with wings’’ and Jack will find his treasure. So off he goes on an adventure through oceans and deserts, cities and bridges, prisons and personal realisations. Bridget and Roger Sanders have crafted some gorgeous puppets, sets and songs to bring this tale to life. Using different scales and puppets (table top, shadow and hand) they have created beautiful castelet’s made from moving boxes that unfold and take us to new and beautiful crafted locations.
