Derived from Te Reo Maaori meaning electric shock/lightning/flash, it perfectly embodies our vibrant theatre festival! HIKO! will be running from 4 - 16 November, showcasing innovative works by Kirikiriroa creators, where fresh ideas collide and creativity ignites.  

Four electric new local works will be front and centre, presenting a variety of experimental works, from full productions to staged readings, giving you a look into the creative development of cutting-edge plays. Each piece offers a fresh perspective and provides new stories. Be careful, don’t get shocked by the following electrifying works:  

·                     Don’t Mention It by Nathan Higgins
