Created by Measured Frenzy Co, Münster has been in development since mid 2021, this is an ambitious, debut, full-length contemporary dance work, featuring some incredibly talented artists from Tāmaki Makaurau.
Multiple men who claim they can speak to God, twelve apostles, sixteen wives, and a collective descent into madness make for a little-known historical event that is too absurd to be anything but the truth.
Münster, set in an era of social upheaval and drawing from the rich historical tapestry of 1530s Germany, is an exploration of an age and society in flux, and what happens when our overarching social constructs cease to function.
Encased by place and time, souls bound together by presumed guilt, a world descending into chaos and conversations with the deity of your choosing. Münster invites you into a domain of belief, manipulation and prophets, counterfeit or otherwise.
