Feilding Little Theatre back in show business after three years of uncertainty
Hi neighbours,
There is excitement that drama will soon be back on stage at Feilding Little Theatre instead of surrounding the building itself.
The curtain at the historic venue is set to rise for the first time since it was closed in March 2021 due to a structural fault.
With the building now getting a tick from the engineers, audiences will be welcomed back next week for one-man WWI monologue Stretcher Bearer.
Joan Ford, a member of the Little Theatre Players and the theatre’s building committee, spoke to us about the troupe's communal culture, and the involvement of families and school children through the years.
Do you have a treasured memory or favourite production at the little theatre from years gone by?
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
