New Zealand Odyssey: A Graphic Journey (book)
Don Donovan and Euan Sarginson

Hardback, large format, colour, 234 pages. 1989

Sticker residue on one of inside pre-title pages after removal of an inscribed message. Also personalised inscriptions and signatures surrounding one sketch on P42. Otherwise excellent.

The authors have travelled the length and breadth of the country seeking structures and landscapes that, to them, are the essence of New Zealand, 'warts 'n' all.' The illustrations invite us to look again at things we walk past every day without noticing; ornate buildings hidden above shop-front canopies, rusting roofs, faded signwriting, pompous facades, simple colonial dwellings, peeling paint, colourful mosses, crumbling brick... If you seek the real New Zealand you will find it among Sarginson's stunning photos and Donovan's whimsical watercolours..

Price: $10

Showtime Australia’s The Bee Gees Night Fever is set to return this September to complete three final performances from its postponed 2021 tour.

The show will be making two stops in Auckland - at the north shore’s Bruce Mason Centre on 16 September and the southside’s SkyCity Theatre on 26 September – plus an exciting arena performance in Hamilton at Globox Arena Claudelands on 20 September.

The show’s international cast and crew were already in New Zealand in October 2021 ready to start their national tour when extra COVID-19 restrictions were brought in by the New Zealand government, forcing the last-minute postponement of some of their events.

The cast is thrilled to finally now be able to return to Auckland and Hamilton to perform for fans there, and is hoping to make these shows extra special for all the patrons who have been so patient and understanding.

“It’s been a difficult few years for our industry. But New Zealand fans and theatregoers have been so supportive and understanding. Now we just want to bring them a great show to say “thanks” for sticking in there with us,” says Promoter and Director Johnny Van Grinsven.

Fans will be able to hear all the disco dance-floor-fillers, smooth 70s ballads and 60s Pop standards that the world-renowned Bee Gees are famous for, including Stayin’ Alive, Jive Talkin’, You Should Be Dancin’, How Deep Is Your Love, More Than a Woman, Tragedy, If I Can’t Have You and so many more, performed live in three-part harmony with full backing band and theatrical production.

Tickets are on sale now from the venue box offices.

The 'Financial Literacy Fund' will support students with critical financial literacy skills needed before they embark on their working careers; change their habits from 'spend, spend, spend' to one where they learn to prioritise money and save for things they need. This fund will instill our youth with hope that they can strive to achieve their goals.

Over the next year before the first round of distributions are made, we want to learn what programmes are out there that we may be able to help support and grow. Talk to us at Momentum Waikato Community Foundation.
