Fairytales for grown-ups: Maui Trickster — live event
The Crick Crack Club presents Fairytales for Grown-ups: Maui Trickster Performance storytelling by Mikael Öberg Step into a world where creation is still in motion—where the Sun Beast scorches the skies, Grandmother Fire blazes, and fish are the size of islands. Where secrets lurk in the underworld, and Great Woman Night watches over it all. At the centre of this vibrant and unfinished cosmos stands dark eyed Maui. A master of creative disruption. A quick-witted mover and shaker. A shape-shifting, boundary-breaker. Wielding a magical jawbone and an insatiable curiosity, this ancient trickster relentlessly reshapes reality, answering every “why?” with an audacious “why not?”. The chaotic exploits of this demigod of the southern hemisphere have haunted Mikael Öberg’s imagination for two decades. The result is comedic, unfiltered myth fuelled by irrepressible energy and accompanying sonic electrickery. 'A fresh dose of magic you need in your life' EVERYTHING THEATRE Content advice: This performance contains descriptions of violence, sex, stillbirth, genitals and vagina dentata, contextualised within a paradigm of mythic narrative, archetype and metaphor.
