“With four festivals overa two-year period, Reimagine is the latest addition to the arts festival model, joining Right Royal Cabaret Festival, Spiegel Fest and Winter Fest. This brand-new 10-day festival is proud to celebrate Taranaki and the arts in a range of venues that are outside the norm.”
The headline act is Cirque OLIO. The Australian-based show will be in Taranaki for five performances scheduled to run during the 10-day festival.
Joining the line-up is Artefact - How to Behave in a Museum, a site-specific dance performance at Puke Ariki Museum. Christchurch artist THEIA is also stopping in for the festival bringing her new show, THEIA x TE KAAHU to St Mary’s Peace Hall. Earlybirds will have the chance to have a one-off on-stage party at the Bowl of Brooklands. Night owls can also join the fun, with a silent disco CityWalk.
