Description
When asked by the Arts Foundation Te Tumu Toi to describe the highlight of soon becoming a 2024 arts laureate, and winner of the Toi Kō Iriiri Queer Arts Award, playwright and producer Victor Rodger replied:
“It means that I get to stand in front of an audience and thank my mother for essentially being the main reason I get to stand there in the first place.”
Which is exactly what Rodger did, sharing the award at the Arts Foundation function late October with his “Mother Laureate”.
