Come see a new play at BATS Theatre!

Hector Berlioz, the 19th-century French composer, and Hector Wong, Chinese Wellingtonian, inexplicably find themselves in a room together. What else are they to do but talk to each other?

Hector is a short play written by poet and musician Cadence Chung, co-directed by Hazel Perigo-Blackburn and Lewis Thomson, alongside dramaturg Jackson McCarthy.

The play follows just two characters - Hector Berlioz and Hector Wong - and their attempts to find some commonalities despite the centuries between them. Travelling through many scenarios and eras, the two loosely catalogue their lives, in a dialectic style reminiscent of a Platonic dialogue. It also involves a performance of songs from Berlioz's Nuits D'ete, with Amelia Lin on the piano and Cadence Chung as the singer.

Witty, acerbic, hilarious, and deeply poetic, this play explores how we interact with historical canons in the modern era, and shares personal experiences about racism, identity, and gender roles in contemporary Aotearoa.

The season runs from 18-22 June at BATS Theatre. For more information, and to book tickets, visit this link: bats.co.nz...

This is a plea to all building owners (domestic and commercial) who do not have street numbers. Please put street numbers (clearly-visible) on your buildings/fences/walls, facing the street.
It's no fun traipsing along streets and roads - especially in bad weather - looking for a property. It must be a nightmare for the emergency services as well.
YOU know where you live; you may also know where number XY or Z are on a busy shopping street. But please don't assume everybody else does.
This is most important for the emergency services who are often called out at night.
It's a small, but important, thing. It's not difficult.
