Location Te wāhi
Aotea Centre
Duck Pond takes Tchaikovsky’s beloved masterpiece and gives it a dazzling circus twist.
In this whimsically audacious reimagining, the brilliant minds and bodies of contemporary circus company Circa deliver sumptuous aerials, jaw-dropping acrobatics, and a flurry of feathers in a glorious fusion of Swan Lake and The Ugly Duckling.
Performed with astounding, controlled chaos, Duck Pond is high art served with humour and panache — the perfect blend of elegance, thrills, and entertainment for the grandeur of the Kiri Te Kanawa Theatre.
Proudly part of Auckland Council Whānau
Getting there Te huarahi ki reira
The Aotea Centre is a short walk up Queen Street from Waitematā Station, and the Civic car park is conveniently located beside the venue if you’re driving.
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.
