Pulled between the expectations of the world and the call of something older, she is visited in a dream by her grandmother and guided back to the land that remembers her name. Through roots, wind, and ancestral wisdom, Mareva learns that she is never alone, and that tradition is her strength and foundation, keeping her steady as she moves through the world.Traditional Tahitian storytelling is brought to life through 'Ori Tahiti, live drumming, and music performed by Anavai O Te Ora's dancers and orchestra.✨ Come early to enjoy the market and snag the best seats.
