Rodgers and Hammerstein’s OKLAHOMA! returns
Featuring perennial favourites like ‘Oh what a beautiful morning’, ‘I can’t say no’ and ‘People will say we’re in love’, Oklahoma! is well-loved for good reason. This production at Riverlea Theatre in Hamilton features a vibrant and talented young cast, trained by a stellar and experienced creative team, lead by Director Jane Barnett.
Jane wants to encourage those who know and love the music and story of Oklahoma! to share it with the next generation. “To encourage this, we are offering special family and grandparent packages at our matinee performances,” she said. All of the details are at iticket.co.nz.

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD?
More alcohol restrictions, more lighting, busking rule changes and a whole lot of lobbying - these are some ways Hamilton leaders want to sort out the CBD.
Crime and anti-social behaviour in the area has been in the spotlight after recent news of a man defecating in the street near a city pub and another who flipped tables out the back of a bar after being found scrounging cigarette butts and asked to leave.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
