Devised by Thunk Theatre
‘Homebodies’ is a devised physical theatre work that explores themes of home, belonging and otherness.

CREATIVE TEAM
The team is made up primarily of students who are studying their creative practice at Wellington tertiary institutions, as well as recent graduates, who are all emerging artists. We all aim to raise the profile of the arts and aspire to be full-time theatre-makers.
We are led by three MFA students at Te Herenga Waka Victoria University of Wellington studying theatre:
- Bronya Davies - Movement and Choreography Director
- Stella Vaivai - Script and Narrative Director
- Henry Brosnahan - Production Manager and Design Director
Our areas of research focus on arts education for rangatahi, design-based theatre and decolonising the arts by incorporating Pasifika cultural practices.
