Maui and Sina are ancient mythological figures in Maori and Pasifika legends that have been brought to life for new generations in this play. The play spans oral tradition as if follows the origins of Papa, Rangi and their children to new lands. It then spans the epic journey of the traditional Siakisone family coming to terms with new values and religious ideas from afar. When Maui meets Sina their relationship cannot continue as Maui's family immigrates to the new land of New Zealand. They meet again in New Zealand under tragic circumstances as the family bears the hardship of losing a family member through the values of the new society. This play is the first in a series.
