Tahi Festival
Tahi Festival has been going since 2019. https://www.tahifestivalnz.com/
TAHI Festival has put together 4 polylogues (collections of monologues on a theme). Two of them are from extant work and two are new commissions by NZ writers. Sally Richards (Tahi Festival) and Murray Lynch (Playmarket) have generously shared the work.
Great for students. Two of them have been toured to high schools and they were really well received.
