Unfortunately our first play, It’s Never Too Late, has had to be postponed until next year due to casting issues. However, not wanting to stand still, we have moved around a few dates and are now happy to announce auditions for our first/second play of the year – Home Land by Gary Henderson to be directed by Peter Carr.
Auditions will be held on Sunday 12th March, 2pm, at Kapiti Playhouse Theatre, Ruahine Street. Scripts available at Paper Plus from 1st March. Enquiries can be made to: Peter Carr 021 991 045, or macpetecarr [at] gmail [dot] com.
