Two of Maoridom's top dancers have brought together two of New Zealand's top choreographers in a 70-minute production.
Waatea News reports Taiaroa Royal and Taane Mete of the Okareka Dance Company are developing the show, which will include sections by Douglas Wright and Michael Parmenter.
Mr Mete, from Ngati Kahungunu, says they're filming a piece called Pito this weekend to serve as the opening sequence of Tama Ma.
He says the end will remember another artist, the late Mahinaarangi Tocker.
Tama Ma will debut at the Tempo Festival in Auckland in October.
