* Fr14May-Sa23May: <b>Peter Pan</b> production by the Waiheke Choral Society. Come to see flying children, irrational fairies, psychopathic pirates and a hyperactive, narcissistic, megalomaniacal perpetual child in action on the stage!  Come to see Peter Pan!  Watch as Captain Hook meets his sticky end in the maw of a ticking crocodile. Everything you ever dreamed it would be — it will touch your heart and chill your bones!  Performances will take place from the 15th through the 24th of May, with evening shows on Fridays and Saturdays at 7pm, and matinees on Saturdays and Sundays at 2pm. Ticket prices are $20 for adults, $15 concession, $10 children or $50 for a family.  Tickets are available NOW from cast and crew, and at Cut ‘n Curl hairdressers in Oneroa. You can also book by phoning 372-1000 and leave your name and contact number — and someone will get back to you shortly.

* Fr/Sa 26/27 June 7:30-10pm: HOME: the movie. In 200,000 years, humans have disrupted the fragile balance on which Earth was living for 4 billion years. Global warming, shortage of resources, endangered species: humans are jeopardizing their own living conditions. By the end of the century, the relentless consumption will have exhausted almost all of our planet’s natural resources. But it is too late to be pessimistic: we have barely 10 years left to reverse the trend. We need to become aware of our abusive exploitation of Earth’s gifts and change our way of life. HOME is a travel notebook, showing landscapes captured from a bird’s eye view above. This film calls for a new awareness, inviting the viewer to stop for a moment in order to look at our planet and realize how we treat her treasures and her beauty. Entry by koha: the café will be open AFTER the film so feel free to linger, talk, listen, share your feelings and thoughts...

Artworks Community Theatre is not simply a performing arts theatre; it is a community-owned, volunteer-run, multi-purpose venue which is able to be claimed as "home" for a variety of Waiheke groups. The Snug is a relaxed and intimate venue with couches and comfortable seating for up to 20 people, and is ideal for poetry recitals, book clubs, study groups, club meetings, etc. The Auditorium (includes the stage) may be hired separately for larger group activities and performing arts, or may be hired along with the Snug for exclusive use.

The Theatre has a licensed Café and EFTPOS facilities available for special events.

We have brought new energy and enthusiasm to the Theatre with an incorporated society as the administrative structure so that many hands can make light work. This ensures the brightest of futures for our wonderful community asset. The Society has been operating the Theatre for a year now and welcomes new members. If you're into performing, children's theatre, lighting, direction/production, set design or construction, sound, front of house, administration, makeup and wardrobe, backstage, special effects, or providing that essential component of performing arts — the audience! — get in touch with your name, edress and phone number, and we'll add you as a Friend of Artworks Theatre. There is no subscription to join the Society, so feel free!
