A Māori Theatre Wānanga for any local entertainment lovers will be held in Rotorua tomorrow as the Aronui Indigenous Arts Festival's latest offering.
The wānanga will be held tomorrow from 10am to 2pm at a pop-up gallery on Eruera St.
The event will be hosted by theatre practitioners, Juanita Hepi,
Scotty Cotter, Erina Daniels and Tola Newbery, who were all members of the Toi Āmai theatre production.
"If you're into being on stage or think you're a funny fulla – we are funny fullas too. So come along and have a jam," Newbery said.
Hepi said the wānanga would enable people to come together and discuss the future of Māori theatre.
"We want to talk about the type of work we've been playing with. It's about deconstructing theatre. Deconstructing those creative spaces to make it more accessible for our people."
