The comedic one-act play 'Welcome to Hellansville' was staged as part of the Auckland Fringe Festival for the very first time – a world premiere right on our doorstep! An all-local theatrical hit, with all three shows a sell-out at The Rose Centre on 14th, 15th and 16th September. Written by local James Carrick, directed by Channel Mag's very own local Liz Cannon, performed by four amazing local actors and supported by local front of house and back stage crews at our local Rose Centre, this was truly grass roots theatre at its very best, and in turn was supported by locals in droves. This is what community theatre is all about, and it was heavenly and hotter than hell all at the same time! A huge thank you to all you locals both on and off the stage – your support made this inaugural production such a success!
