Sharing a special message through Maori stories, drama, music and dance

Our journey started with the dream of a small group of people to combine a very special message with the cultural treasure of Te Tairawhiti Maori. This lead to the foundation of Waka Toa, a professional performing arts group which uses traditional Maori techniques, stories and legends with modern drama, music and humour in a distinctive presentation which has touched the lives of people throughout New Zealand and as far away as Australia, Fiji, Kuala Lumpur, Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Slovakia.

It is our hearts desire to see peoples lives changed through the message we share of hope destiny, new beginnings and prosperity to the nations.

And now we wish to share it with you through the uniquely New Zealand experience of Waka Toa.
