Huge flames, incredible stunts, a real-life bed of nails - it’s a show to keep every member of the family on the edge of their seat!

When: 11th November 2017
Where: Isaac Theatre Royal, Christchurch

We look forward to seeing you there!

Pay It Forward
Nanogirl believes that science is for everyone, and the Nanogirl Labs team work hard to ensure that tickets to our Nanogirl Live! events are affordable. Despite those efforts, for some New Zealanders, theatre shows like this are still very special events that do not fit within the family budget.

Through our 'Pay-It-Forward' programme, you can help make science and engineering accessible for everyone. For every 'Pay-It-Forward' ticket you purchase, you enable someone who would not otherwise have had the chance to see this live science spectacular to come along. Only available via the Regent Theatre box office.
Buy your tickets now!

At Heartland Bank, we share Neighbourly’s commitment to Kiwi communities and we’re proud to offer seniors the opportunity to stay in the home they love.

A house is more than bricks and mortar and a community is more than a boundary on a map; both are full of memories and comfortable connectedness. If your parent is having a tough time making ends meet, but don’t want to sell their home to fund the things they need or want, consider talking to them about releasing some equity in their home with a Heartland Reverse Mortgage.
