Set in a wasteland in an alternate present, a man searches for machinery hoping to build something that will help him become seki.
Originally premiering as part of Shifting Centre's arts festival CIVIC, SEKI makes its return for its Tāmaki Makaurau premiere as part of Tempo Dance Festival. SEKI is the debut solo dance work by Te Whanganui-a-Tara based artist Sefa Tunupopo. This work offers a glimpse into ideas that have been slowly unfolding since 2024. SEKI is a love letter to family and a meditation on survival, care, and maintenance.

Stick around for a bevvie or two at the bar. Not only are the tickets are cheap but the drinks at the bar won't break the bank either.
