This exciting Tahitian show "Marquesan Fire" was filmed live at the Tiki Village Theatre in Moorea, French Polynesia. This feast for the senses dramatizes local legend through traditional Tahitian music and dance. Rain, falling for weeks, has left a small Tahitian village with no dry wood for the making of fire. The chief sends his warriors in an outrigger canoe to search the Marquesan Islands and return with precious fire for the village. This elaborate show features authentically costumed men and women performing all types of Tahitian dance accompanied by talented drummers, musicians, and singers. Innovative staging and choreographies include spirited Otea routines to pulsating drumming, fire lit torches, a lovely vahine emerging from a clam shell, dancers manipulating their pareaus like veils, muscular tattooed tane demonstrating their fighting skills, and spectacular fire performers amazing the audience with their torches, and single and double fire batons.
