God Promised Noah that he would never flood the earth again. Now the land lays barren, the water polluted, food scarce and the future dim. Three siblings must abandon their homeland to survive. Does hope lie across the sea, with the promise of a new life... In lands which they must call “home” but can never call their own.
A family watch their history swept away in front of them, their identity is all the have to hold them to who they are. Being rooted in the richness of a traditional culture, is now being challenged by the changing environment.
Family who have passed must lay abandoned by those who love them the most, songs will sing of a land once gifted from god and taken by man, the same oceans that bought the people to of Tuvalu to their home of Tuvalu, will now take them away forever, “God Save Tuvalu...”
Au Ko Tuvalu consists of a cast of friends who met at the Pacific Institute of Performing Arts (PIPA). Au Ko Tuvalu has bought many people into our team as support, friends, family and as industry family. The Va (relationship) that has bought this particular team together has been nurtured from our days studying at PIPA, where Au Ko Tuvalu was first bought to life as part of a Pacific Studies report portrayed through a play.
The team of Au Ko Tuvalu also work with an ensemble that is formed from members of local Tuvaluan communities where the show performed. So far we have worked with the communities of Christchurch, Wellington and Auckland. This is a big part of the “Company”, as we are able to hear and learn new stories, fatele, songs, and hymns that are special and particular to the Tuvaluan communities we work with.
