Wearable Arts 2009

There was a roar of excitement at the Ngaio Marsh Theatre on Monday the 3rd and Tuesday the 4th of August.
Fendalton Open-air School displayed a magnificent performance, all with humour, costumes, class dances and an additional New Zealand extra at the end.
The performance, called Absolutely Aotearoa was made by the children receiving little help from adults. The children performed 3 performances there were six categories. These were introduced by six dances from each class.
All costumes had to fit in one of the six categories.
The costumes were spectacular a giant buzzy bee appeared in Natural NZ and the sky tower appeared in ManMade NZ.
The dances introduced each category like Room 11's Canterbury dance where tourists ran onto the stage and a try where the performers fell of the stage.
Great fun Family night out.
