'The Māori Sidesteps' are coming to Circa this October!
Māori made mischief
Contemporary showband The Māori Sidesteps are serving crooning and comedic goodness. With soulful harmonies, satirical skits, and superb song parodies, these fullas have won rave reviews, alongside their hit webseries and TV show – and now you can catch them live on stage at Circa Theatre!
The Sidesteps flip comedic nostalgia on its head and weave stunning harmonies with theatrical play, skewering social idioms and shining a cheeky light on what it means to be Māori in 2025.
Celebrating connection and the richness of our differences, The Māori Sidesteps bring pride in identity, the strength of mana motuhake, and the reminder that joy is the best antidote to division. From government blunders to policies ripe for the picking, these top-notch entertainers take aim at the kaupapa of the moment. Expect fearless satire, wickedly subversive humour, and a refreshing dose of truth-telling disguised as hilarity.
If you’ve ever wished someone would sing what you’ve been thinking about the current political climate, The Māori Sidesteps are here to deliver Māori made mischief through waiata that wink!
