Kia ora mō tenei pikitia me ngā kupu pae rawe e Mark raua ko Briar. So great to see Māori theatre practitioners celebrated here, and no doubt time for an update with the many superb productions since 2014. I will never forget Rachel House's performance as Tiri Mahana in "Woman Far Walking" -- utterly compelling: kia ora Rachel raua ko Witi!
