Book
Join raconteur Te Radar as he fossicks through the rural bits and pieces that reveal the untold stories of our past and present.
Based on the acclaimed book Kiwi Country: Rural New Zealand in 100 Objects by Te Radar and Ruth Spencer, the show is a wild romp through the sheds and paddocks, the outhouses and the orchards of New Zealand.
Discover Aunt Daisy’s hints for keeping flies out of a meat safe, the lurking dangers of the bungee cord, the adventures of top-dressing plans and the somewhat different adventures of undressing shearers.
Equal parts history, hilarity and heartfelt nostalgia, Te Radar’s Kiwi Country invites audiences to hear the stories hidden in plain sight; the artefacts and anecdotes that remind us who we are.
