CAT RUKA 
presents 
NEW TREATY MILITIA


Award winning performance artist Cat Ruka presents her latest work NEW TREATY MILITIA, a theatrical protest that radically explores the contentious document of the Treaty of Waitangi. It investigates how this document relates to the way in which identity is constructed – and perhaps obsessed over – in New Zealand, and poses the idea that it preoccupies Maori and Pakeha with an abstract game of power transferral. 

NEW TREATY MILITIA is a surreal and decadent performance critique that strives to demonstrate the realities of how the Treaty manifests in all its horrifyingly dark and profoundly creative ways.
