Experience traditional flamenco!

Tierra y Mar, combines the strains of traditional flamenco guitar, song and dance direct from Spain creating a truly moving and unique theatre experience. Paul Bosauder, highly-regarded flamenco guitarist and composer, brings this tour showcasing his love of this music as well as his love for his country of origin – New Zealand. 

In a review in Flamenco Magazine of Paul’s 2018 performance in Sevilla, Norberto Torres Cortes, commented "Paul is breaking down geographic boundaries to remind us that flamenco belongs to all of us.  His music and playing projects an unrivaled artistic personality".

Experience magic, music, dance & clown performance

A young girl writes a magical letter to brighten the day of an elderly neighbour. But when the letter’s adventurous journey makes its address unreadable, it gets sent to The Lost Letter Office. Can the bumbling sleuths who work there help the letter on its way? Or will it be enveloped in their snail-mail chaos forever?

Hannah Playhouse - an independently run theatre venue for hire

Old buildings usefulness are so often measured by economic imperatives alone and their living presence is never acknowledged. The Hannah Playhouse provides a service to the performing arts community of the whole of NZ, in that she keeps safe the spirits of past lives that have created, and indeed appreciated, within her walls. She is a gatekeeper and her scars deserve a bow. They were earnt over years of use for intended purpose. Not many buildings can say that. I honour her mantel's continued presence in Wellington. She is a real theatre that is still one of our "Cathedrals of Honour to Humanity" in all its reflective expression. She is lucky to have a group of people currently looking after her who uphold her Mana and devote themselves to her care with passion.
