Dive Into the Magic of
Te Moana Glow Show!
This September, bring your tamariki and whānau to an unforgettable theatrical experience under the sea! Te Moana Glow Show lights up the stage with over 40 stunning glow-in-the-dark puppets and a heartwarming story set in the depths of Te Moana-nui-a-Kiwa.
Follow Kina, a loveable sea urchin who has lost her memory and her way, on a magical journey of discovery. Along the way, she meets a vibrant cast of glowing sea creatures – from dancing crabs and manta rays to the dazzling Pacific Queen. With wisdom, courage, and a little moana magic, Kina finds her true self and shines brighter than ever.
With themes of resilience, kindness, and unity (He waka eke noa – we are all in this together), this inspiring show is perfect for ages 3–12 and loved by audiences across Aotearoa.
