When the New Zealand Opera Company's production of Porgy and Bess opened in Sydney recently, both the capacity audience and the theatre critics were full of praise for the production. The audience refused to let the cast leave the stage, so Inia te Wiata led the cast in a haka.

After five weeks in Sydney the company goes on to the Perth and Adelaide Festivals.
