Pātahi: Re-storying the life of a wāhine matātoa

Join wāhine Kāi Tahu Angela Wanhalla, Helen Brown and Cindy Diver in conversation as they discuss their own connection with the compelling life story of their tīpuna Pātahi, a legendary South Island storyteller, adventurer, gold prospector and pounamu fossicker. From archival record to thesis, to biography, to a recent stage-play at the Court Theatre, and digital animation, hear how the re-storying of Pātahi has illuminated the life of this nineteenth century wāhine matātoa.
