Social climbers - the comedy - is touring NZ!

Roger Halls Sparkling Comedy Social Climbers

What do you call six women stranded on a mountain in the rain: ridiculous! Or you could call them social climbers … but just not to their faces! Once at the hut, not only do they unload their packs full of food, wine, and a souvenir rock; their hang-ups get unloaded as well.

What do you call six women stranded on a mountain in the rain: ridiculous! Or you could call them social climbers … but just not to their faces! Once at the hut, not only do they unload their packs full of food, wine, and a souvenir rock; their hang-ups get unloaded as well.

Torrential rain and a flooded bridge keep them stranded for three days. What they get up to, to help pass the time, raises a few eyebrows and will have you laughing, tearing up and applauding enthusiastically as they bare all.

Of course, it’s not just souls that are exposed, there’s a little nudity, a cracking thunderstorm, explosions, screaming bloody murder, ghostly stories, a birthday celebration, a séance, a drunken party, confessions, meltdowns and revelations that will keep you and your friends entertained throughout.

Perfectly timed for your own social group’s ascent into summer, don’t miss this hilarious play when it comes to a town near you in November.

People ignoring forestry warning signs and standing underneath industrial log hauler cables are taking risks they could be seriously hurt.

We’ve had people enter Maymorn plantation forest during intensive harvesting operations despite the extensive signs and warnings. While anyone can make mistakes, this behaviour is deliberate and reckless.

A 48ha block of mature trees around Maymorn is being harvested and this will continue through to Christmas. GWRC and PF Olsen have done everything we can to ensure visitor safety and part-access to the forest during the harvesting. All the information is on our website – please use it to plan your trip. If you are visiting please read and heed the signs for your own safety.

At the Upper Hutt Animal Rescue Society, we have our first pregnant mum. Gadget isn’t even 10 months old and she will be giving birth to her kittens in a few weeks.
We also have Ziggy – who is 10-12 weeks.
And newly arrived - three 4-5 week old kittens.

We are asking for donations of kitten food please so we can start stock piling for the rush. In particular kitten milk and biscuits. The other item we can never have enough of is kitty litter. We use the cheap kitty litter from the supermarkets.

You can drop your items at 4 King Charles Drive, Kingsley Heights. We are open 10:00am – 2:00pm weekdays, and 10:00am – 3:00pm weekends. We would love to say thank you personally.

Or if you are shopping at Countdown Maidstone, or Pak n Save Upper Hutt – look out for our yellow food bins at the front of the store.

Also – interested in fostering? If so, please contact us and we will start the process.
