Inspired by the life of a local trans woman whose courage has shaped her journey against the odds, this piece of verbatim theatre explores truth, memory, and transformation.

What does it mean to carve out an identity in a place that does not always see you? What is carried in the body, the voice, and the heart when the world says no and you choose to say yes?

Through moments of joy, survival, and defiance, Set in Stone asks how do we become who we already are? It is an intimate performance of resilience and tenderness, told with honesty, humour, and an unshakable spirit.

Created by Wild and Rising Star, Eru Heke in collaboration with Sarah's Productions and Fringe in the 'Stings, this unique work shines a light on one local Heretaunga life story, amplifying it to the world.
