Dralion meets the Maori Culture in New Zealand

Tuesday, September 01, 2009

As Dralion is performing in New Zealand it was hard to pass by the occasion we had to meet young Maori that wanted to share their culture with the cast and crew.

It was with great pleasure that we invited those teenagers to enjoy Dralion and after the show they performed a traditional Maori welcome (Powhiri) for the cast and crew.

The Maori culture honors and respect nature greatly. In some ways the four elements of Dralion (water, air, earth and fire) made a normal connection with their traditions.
