Step into a world where love lingers in melody and memory.
Nikita 雅涵 Tu-Bryant, the captivating force behind KITA, revisits [Before & After, JOSHUA], her soul baring breakup album recorded in the back of a van, born from a love story that unfolded on a flight between Phoenix and Santa Barbara.
First staged in 2016, the award-winning Nikita 雅涵 Tu-Bryant now breathes new life into this deeply personal work, transforming it for the intimate surrounds of the Wintergarden, The Civic.
Joined by Dave Khan (Marlon Williams, The Veils, Reb Fountain) and Arahi Whaanga (Te Tokotoru, Troy Kingi), together they offer a sublime blend of music, poetic storytelling, and raw emotion.
A profoundly moving performance, in the heart of the cabaret.
