A Scottish lad of ten is enslaved aboard his Majesty’s ships, circa 1800. After 15 years at sea, he is cast ashore in Aotearoa. The fight for survival begins.
Te Tupua the Goblin is an expertly crafted solo performance, delivered by a veteran of the New Zealand stage. John Davies inhabits nine characters, bringing to life an extraordinary corner of our history.
Based on historical events, this tattooed Pākehā remains a potent figure in today’s political climate.
Ka whakahokia a Tupua he kōrero ia Whakarongo ki te tangi ra kua pahemo.
Te Tupua will come and speak, Listen to this cry from the past. Haere mai Te Tupua
Suitable for Ages 10 years and over
