“Gripping… a memorable and moving look at nature and nurture and what family really means” - The Times
Being a young mum is supposed to be hard - but for Hanna, the only thing she's ever been brilliant at is raising her beloved daughter, Ellie. But then a DNA test reveals staggering news: Ellie is not Hanna’s child - and now her ‘real’ parents want to meet.
Is Hanna obliged to let these strangers into her daughter's life? And how do you explain a mix-up in an overstretched maternity ward to a three-year old? Forced to question what being a parent really means, she makes a drastic decision that will change all their lives.
Sam Potter's funny, heartfelt and compelling one-woman play, Hanna delicately weaves in questions of racial identity, economic privilege, and the lottery of birth - and asks: what does “family” actually mean in today's society?
Hanna is @ Athenaeum Hall, Wednesday 15 March 7.30–9.15 pm.
Tickets $30 from eventfinda.co.nz.

Day 1 we had our Mihi Maioha to welcome new students and families. The purpose of the Mihi Maioha is to welcome new staff, students and whānau onto our school. The current students welcomed all new families with a haka, and then our principal, Chris Bryant, shared a few words of welcome. All students then sung the waiata tautokoour school song - in support. The Mihi Maioha finished with the staff greeting each new family member and student.
