The story of Maui

Who is Maui?

Maui is a demi-god of the Maori culture he got his powers from the gods because his mother cast him
alway out at sea. He thought his mother hated him but when she gave birth she thought he was dead.

He has many stories to tell like how he fished up the north island and he slowed down the sun.

Theatre performances need a lot of technical setting up and preparation. Like the costume, lights, makeup and props. 1)The costume team is all ways there early. 2) Lighting crew has to check the lights before the show. 3) The actors prepare by doing vocal warm up. I found out that there is a lot more work that goes into musical theatre than just going out there in costumes and makeup and performing.
