I was delighted to have a conversation with Lorae Parry, one of New Zealand’s foremost playwrights, following a play reading of her latest script Scarlet and Gold. The play premieres at Circa Theatre in November to mark the 100th anniversary of the formation of the Labour Party in New Zealand. Along with Lorae, Producer Kate JasonSmith and Director/Choreographer Jan Bolwell are equally as passionate about the project and the importance of it’s themes.

Wellington actress Harriet Prebble sits down with me in a break from rehearsals to discuss life as an emerging artist. Her performance in Gifted last year (written by Patrick Evans and directed by Conrad Newport), earned her a nomination for both Most Promising Newcomer and Best Supporting Actress in the 2015 Wellington Theatre Awards. This year, she has performed a leading role in the Caryl Churchill double bill season at BATS Theatre and now she is tackling Stage Kiss, her second Circa Theatre show, written by Sarah Ruhl and directed by Ross Jolly, for a season this July.
