WE'LL MEET AGAIN

Upper Hutt Musical Theatre has another great musical coming up; showcasing life in two world wars with some of the most memorable wartime music ever written.

We’ll Meet Again is the kind of show that will bring back memories to those of us old enough to remember, and will give younger people a glimpse of what life was like in wartime: separation from loved ones; the training camps; the air raids; rationing; mail from home; the trenches; the camp concerts; the Anzacs; the movies; wartime cabaret; women at war; and more.

To present this show to you, Upper Hutt Musical Theatre has assembled a cast of more than 30 talented singers, dancers and actors. Musical numbers will include such classics as Wish Me Luck; This is the Army; In the Mood; Lili Marlene; Auf Wiederseh’n; White Cliffs of Dover; Stage Door Canteen; In the Mood; Underneath the Arches; Roses of Picardy; Coming in on a Wing and a Prayer; Maori battalion; Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy and many more.

RECONNECTED

new ceramics from Cate Pates

This show is the latest development of Cate Pates’ ceramic journey, although the aim is always the same: to create something that causes a spark in the beholder and draws them to a piece, encouraging exploration of the surface and its subtleties.

The way of building using pieces like a jigsaw has been an innate development rather than a conscious decision.  The preparation of the slabs can take as long as the building process itself, but is one that she finds delightful, especially the sense of bringing something from the outside in through printing and imprinting.  The forms are not functional yet are based on traditional domestic vessels, which allows her to create sensuous ornate handles and provides a reference for the viewer.
