Laughter, tears and thrilling adventure are promised when an epic adventure unites with the miracle of Kuaka/Godwit migration. Puppetry, Storytelling, and Music for ages 5 to 95!

Award-winning theatre company ‘Birdlife Productions’ are bringing you a comic, touching, and environmental story using the ageless wonder of puppetry, live music and exquisite hand-crafted sets that magically unfold out of boxes, telling an epic fable of one young man’s life-altering journey set against the backdrop of the miracle of the great migration of Kuaka (Bar-tailed Godwits).

‍

As these fragile birds set out on their extraordinary journey from New Zealand to Alaska, watching them take to the sky in awe is Jack-the-Everyman, who is contemplating a journey of his own to seek the ‘treasure’ that will save his dying orchard. Promising laughter, tears and thrilling adventure, this beautiful story inspires us to ask the question; “how do we trust our inner map - how do we find our own wings?” Suitable for ages 5 to 95!

The performance duration is 45minutes. Te Atamira is thrilled to be taking this show to Glenorchy, thanks to the Headwater Eco Lodge.
