Lisa Maule brings her collection of original poetry to the stage in this playful and thought-provoking performance 'Revelation Valley' celebrating creativity, curiosity and the everyday.

​

With live music by Michelle Scullion, these humorous and heartfelt poems wander from a "capitalist stapler" and the need to pee, to the winding hills of Karori and the traces of ancient trees.

 

Unexpected laughs, moments of reflection, and a fresh perspective on the world around you. Challenge your norms and immerse yourself in creativity.

​

“The energy buzzing between Lisa and the incredible

Michelle Scullion is such a highlight.”
