The CACTNZ team worked with the East Suburbs Youth Trust in Strathmore / Seatoun to start creation for the youth fire section of the show in Wellington at Frank Kitts park.
The team consisted of Claire French (Producer), Rohana Weaver (Artistic Director) and David French (Scottish international street performer and percussionist). The group made their own fire toys, learnt and choreographed routines, put together some percussion acts and had a fire safety session which lead to the first burn of the routines!
The young people were great! They worked really hard and battled on through Wellingtons wind and rain!
Thanks to all involved, especially Lorna (group leader) and all the youth workers that offered their energy and support.
