A 2021 Green Door Theatre Company Development
Green Door Theatre Company is seeking expressions of interest from Māori actors of all ages for a creative development of Tataraimaka Moana (Beautiful Place By The Sea) by Daley Rangi.
ABOUT THE PLAY:
Tataraimaka Moana (Beautiful Place by the Sea) is a bold and refreshing new work by Māori playwright Daley Rangi, examining transgenerational trauma and ecological sovereignty.
An intimate lyrical exploration of cultural and climate apocalypse from the perspective of tangata whenua, three stories of lost souls intertwine over the ebb and flow of a polluted ocean under a sky on fire. Inspired by ancestry, and fuelled by injustice, Tataraimaka Moana is an evocative voyage of unearthing hope within the hopeless and finding your way back home.
We are offering a small honorary fee for this development.
Development will occur part time over early March.
Please email all expressions of interests, along with your CV and headshot (a clear photo of your face is welcome) to greendoortheatreco@gmail.com with “Tataraimaka Moana EOI” in the subject line.
All levels of experience are welcome to apply.
Perusal copies of the script are also available on request.
EOI’s close on Friday 27th of February
