Signing the steel: Milestone moment for regional theatre as final beam lifted into place

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

There were a few beaming faces and one big beam that was the centre of attention at the Waikato Regional Theatre on Wednesday.

The beam in question was a 600kg steel strut that was lifted into place atop the theatre’s flying tower, shortly after midday - but not before it was decorated with about 30 signatures of those who have had central roles in the project.

Poll: Do you like the idea of bands at the rugby?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Rugby fans have been left disgruntled, but the Chiefs are defending their big price-hike to tickets − some more than tripling from last week − for Saturday’s action at FMG Stadium Waikato.

It comes as the Super Rugby franchise hosts a unique ‘Rugby and Rhythms’ event featuring a double-header of games at their Hamilton home venue, as well as live music from Kiwi artists in and around the ground.

Do you like the idea of bands at the rugby? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
