What do an ancient Chinese text, an acclaimed science fiction author, poetry and jazz all have in common?
They're all part of a New Zealand Fringe show playing in Wellington this Saturday night.
Called Waypeople, the performance is billed as an amalgam of ancient wisdom and lyrical jazz, inspired by the poetic translation of the classic Chinese text, the Tao Te Ching.
Emile Donovan speaks to Wellington jazz musician Jake Baxendale, the creative mind behind it all.
