He Wawata Whaea and Dance of the Instant

Don't miss these two documentaries that offer two very different and equally fascinating stories from our past. Dance of the Instant captures a remarkable slice of New Zealand dance history. The New Dance Group were pioneers of modern dance in this country and provided a cradle for this emerging art form.He Wawata Whaea is a profile of Dr Merimeri Penfold - a great champion of the Māori language, a leading figure in many campaigns, and a composer of haka and waiata.
