Shelagh Magadza - Festival Odyssey

From Saturday Morning, 10:06 am on 21 October 2017

The NZ Festival first became part of Shelagh Magadza's life around 20 years ago. Her earlier jobs there involved administration and  ferrying artists around Wellington - but since 2014 she has been its artistic director. The 2018 festival will be her last and she's going out with a bang - a huge line-up of theatre, music, dance and more - from Swan Lake to Star Wars - and A Waka Odyssey which will see a fleet of waka glide onto Wellington Harbour in a spectacular opening event.  Magadza joins Richard to preview next year's festival programme.
