Do you know anyone who's 'taken a seat' in the theatre?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Three organisations dedicated to improving the lives of the region’s residents - Creative Waikato, Sport Waikato and Community Waikato - are formally backing Hamilton’s new theatre.

And it is a case of “the three Waikatos” backing the theatre in a very literal fashion, with the names of the three community trusts soon to be adorning a plaque attached to three chairs in the 1300-seat facility.

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times
