SIX DEGREES LAUNCH
Join us for an evening of drinks, nibbles, and an exclusive preview of the seven projects created by our theatre students in the Master of Fine Arts (Creative Practice) programme at Te Herenga Waka–Victoria University of Wellington.
LIMBO
Limbo is an original, modern Kiwi adaptation of 1300s epic poem, Dante's Inferno. As washed-up comedian David Noble peels back the layers of wrongs never righted, he is forced to confront the sins of his past to better his future.
THE LOBSTER
The 2015 award-winning absurdist black comedy film ‘The Lobster’, directed by Yorgos Lanthimos, comes to life in this first-of-its-kind stage adaptation, where monogamous romance is mandatory and violently enforced.
AT THE ALTAR
With only days until the wedding, Laurel takes it upon herself to find her dear little sister. But something lurks in the manor’s walls, eyes watch unseen and ghosts of the past aren’t willing to stay buried. Will Laurel be reunited with her little sister or will the Barker Estate swallow her whole?
ON GOD
