Join us at The New Zealand Portrait Gallery for Taki Rua Production's Te Kuia me te Pūngāwerewere. This show will be hosted in our Gallery surrounded by the artwork of Robyn Kahukiwa.

We are hosting a free 30-minute show at 10 am.

The show is based on the children’s book by Patricia Grace and illustrated by Robyn Kahukiwa. Performed completely in te reo Māori, Te Kuia me te Pūngāwerewere is the untold story of the Kuia and her relationship with Pūpai the spider. While in the midst of their daily bickering, Kuia and Pūpai are suddenly transported from their Paekākāriki home into the world of spiders. There, they must work together to save Spider World from suburban sprawl.
