A defining experience of the Festival, this monumental collision of theatre and aerial transforms the Kiri Te Kanawa Theatre into a whole other world. An all-female cast exhibits spectacular strength and skill, emerging and vanishing from portals of light and shadow, all of it enveloped in a gorgeous soundscape. It’s simply breathtaking. With captivating design and composition from the creative force that is Malia Johnston, Rowan Pierce and Eden Mullholand, in collaboration with Jenny Ritchie, Belle is a visual and atmospheric wonder that left us speechless — and we haven’t been able to stop talking about it since. It’s a performance of air, and so, so much more.
Getting there Te huarahi ki reira

Local tip He tīwhiri mō te rohe
Check out the sculpture of celebrated Kiwi opera singer Dame Kiri Te Kanawa which sits on Level 3 of the Aotea Centre. It was created by local artist Terry Stringer and unveiled by Dame Kiri Te Kanawa herself when the auditorium was named in her honour in 2019.
