* <b>Mondays</b> 6:30 - 8pm: <b>Crash Course</b>: Chris Martenson’s “Crash Course” is a series of videos which serves as a clear and straightforward explanation of how our economy, energy systems and environment interact, how we got to where we are today, and some reasonable expectations for the future.  The July sessions will be shown in the Theatre foyer on four successive Monday evenings from the 5th until the 26th of July from 6:30-8pm.  A repeat of the series will run from the 9th to 30th of August.  There is no charge for the course; we do ask, however, that people choose a month when they can attend all four sessions.  Please RSVP to 372-2041.  Facilitated by Millie Watkins, James Samuel and Emma Bowyer-Warner.  @ [[Artworks Theatre|Artworks Community Theatre]]

* <b>Mondays 7:00-8:00pm</b> until 30Mar: <b>Feldenkrais classes</b> with Judy Oliver.  Feldenkrais is an educational system centered on movement, aiming to expand and refine the use of the self through awareness. It is intended for those who wish to improve their movement repertoire (dancers, musicians, artists), as well as those wishing to reduce pain or limitations in movement, and many who want to improve their general well-being and personal development.  Because it uses movement as the primary vehicle for gaining awareness, it is directly applicable to disorders that arise from restricted or habitually poor movement.  Contact Judy on 372-9780 or [mailto:JudysMove@xtra.co.nz JudysMove@xtra.co.nz]. @ [[Artworks Theatre|Artworks Community Theatre]]

Students must enrol for a term of lessons, and are encouraged to commit to a year's attendance to allow for more exciting planning.  Each term will have a different focus and there will be at least one evening performance to put skills into practice.  All students should arrive 5min before the start of the lesson and wear suitable loose clothing for moving around freely and there will be some floor work -- so no best clothes, please!  Bring only a dollop of enthusiasm and a sense of humour. 6-8yo: 3:30 - 4:15; 9-13yo: 4:45 - 5:45; 14-18yo: 6:30-8:00.  To book, contact Cindy Peterken ph 2770 or email [mailto:L.Peterken@xtra.co.nz?subject=Query_from_Waihekepedia L.Peterken@xtra.co.nz]. @ [[Artworks Theatre|Artworks Community Theatre]]

* Sa04Apr 8pm: <b>Fagan, Fagan & Kerr</b>: James Fagan & Nancy Kerr, with Kate Fagan (Australia / England).

In 2002, they won the BBC Best Folk Duo, and have gone from strength to strength. Kate herself has also forged a stunning solo career for her lyrical songwriting and guitar, and her debut album "Diamond Wheel" won the 2006 National Film & Sound Archive Award for Best Folk Album, just days after its release.

* Sa11Apr 8pm / Su12Apr 2pm: <b>The Orderly by the Rebel Alliance</b>: "Hospitals are Battlefields": Enter the fringe world of medieval re-enactment and meet Peter -- orderly during the week, ferocious warrior in the weekend. As he prepares for the weekend's big battle against the notorious Vikings, a friend in need changes his life. Time flickers, empty hospital wards turn into long-forgotten battlefields, and everybody fights for their lives. Inspired by the real life of an Auckland hospital orderly who died in 2003, The Orderly takes you into the very heart of one of life's foot soldiers. The play is written and performed by Michael Downey, who takes on all parts; ranging from the gorgeous nurse, Donna, to a semi nude Viking berserker high on mushrooms and lusting for blood.
