Te Kuia me te Pungawerewere - The Kuia and the Spider
Taki Rua and Capital E present te reo Māori children's production Te Kuia Me Te Pūngāwerewere.

'Te Kuia Me Te Pūngāwerewere' tells the real reason why the old lady and the spider are constantly arguing.

While in the midst of their daily bickering, Kui and Pūpai the spider are suddenly thrust from their home in Paekākāriki into the wonderful world of spiders. There, they must work together to save the spider world from human proliferation.

The show is performed entirely in te reo Māori, but uses gestures and movement so that even non-speakers can follow along.
