🫡Coming up in the whare i tēnei marama....

🪖 Tāke Kurī: The Dog Tax Rebellion brings to life a dramatic chapter of Te Tai Tokerau history, a story of resistance, law, power and the fight to uphold mana ✊🏽, with themes that continue to resonate in Aotearoa today.

Set in the Hokianga 🌊, the play explores events surrounding the introduction of the Dog Tax, a law which many Māori believed unfairly targeted their communities. The dispute escalated into an armed standoff between Te Māhurehure hapū and government forces. Directed as an ensemble work, the production features four actors playing more than 20 characters, bringing to life Māori and pākehā figures involved in the conflict, as well as 🐾 canine commentators who provide a wry perspective on the events unfolding around them…

Presented by HallowGreen NZ

Led by Seth, our narrator, guide and climate change expert, HallowGreen 2 builds on last year’s production and
takes us on a fast-moving journey through the ages. From the fears of a medieval village and the revolutionary
ideas of the Renaissance and Enlightenment to the rise of industry, Big Oil and the possibilities of an imagined
future, we uncover the discoveries, decisions and forces that have shaped our climate story.
Along the way, we encounter Left, Right, the Amygdala and a merry band of dreamers, realists, doubters,
inventors and thinkers each pulling and pushing in different directions, and all yearning to be heard. We also
meet the molecules: the invisible players we seldom consider, yet whose actions are crucial to understanding
both our past and what happens next.
How did we get here? How do our minds shape the way we respond? And what might tomorrow look like if we
could find a way forward together?
