Kia ora koutou Rua i Te whānau, my dear friend and colleague Floyd Favel, a theatre theorist, director, teacher, and essayist. He studied theatre in Denmark at the Tukak Teatret, a school for Inuit and Sami peoples, and in Italy with Jerzy Grotowski, a Polish theatre director and influential theatre figure of the 20th century. He is the curator of the Poundmaker Museum, director of the Poundmaker Indigenous Performance Festival, a global Indigenous festival and founder of the Sarasa Performance Laboratory.
