Ko Ngati Tuwharetoa me Te Atiawa nga iwi
Ko Api Wairau-Mason ahau, te tangata Tumatarau
I have always been fascinated with the world of magic and growing up in Wainuiomata we were not exposed to much magic, however being raised by my grandparents playing with cards were the normal. We played cards in all occasions and at every location. From a wedding to a tangi, from a kitchen table to the marae, a putu kari came in handy.
I have never seen a magic trick performed in Te Reo Maori and thought to myself “why not, do that?” All the memories of playing cards with our kui and koro came back as well as the conversations they had in te reo maori.
Today, all of these things have created a unique act to share with you all, using a Te Ao Maori based structure showcasing the world of magic and cardistry.
No reira e te iwi, if you have an event or planning anything and needing some form of entertainment, why not reach out and give your event a magical Maori vibe. Please feel free to contact me for a chat and we can work together on making your event the most magical event possible.
Nga mihi aroha kia koutou katoa.
