INTO THE REM ZONE

where dance and dreams collide

Dive into the zone of dreams with four of New Zealand's leading contemporary dancers in this high-energy dance-drama fusion.

You'll enter another dimension where things are witty, weird and surreal as you watch four dreams come alive on stage.  Let the performers take you between worlds, between the states of consciousness one enters while sleeping and dreaming.  Don't miss this theatrical experience - a show with bite and an original sound track; ideal for young people aged 8-12 years.

The first-ever collaboration between Capital E National Theatre for children and Footnote Dance, Into the REM Zone mixes the skills and experience of two New Zealand's leading arts organisations to create this multi-genre theatre exploration.

All tickets: $10.50 or $38 Family Pass (4 x tickets)

Expressions Arts & Entertainment Centre and The Breeze presents

THE TRUTH ABOUT LOVE

The Truth About Love takes the form of a riotous 'introductory seminar', where four 'sexperts' initiate the audience into the secrets of love, loss, longing and lust. It's a fast paced, hilarious and often moving look at love in all guises. The show is a fusion of song, choreography and comedy, revolving around the theme of love. Spoofing the prevalent trend of property and personal growth seminars and the gurus who run them, the show is hosted by 'Sandy Sugars' and 'Candy Cox', two self-made experts who entice the audience to sign up to their get-love-quick-scheme. Along the way they introduce various ‘celebrities’ and ‘past success stories’ to endorse their sensual smorgasbord.  Starring Pinky Agnew, Sue Dunlop, Kate Harcourt & Lorae Parry.  Michael Nicholas Williams on piano and choreography by Jan Bolwell.

All Tickets: $38 or $30 for groups of 10+
