Manage Your Expectations | On Sale Now!

Marketing Manager from Circa Theatre

You decide the ending…

Solo performer Eliza Sanders has a simple task: to tell you everything that will happen in the show, so you can decide if you would like to see it. Nothing is ever so simple.

This genre-defying work of dance, theatre, live film, clown and absurd philosophising takes the idea of the ‘trigger warning’ to its absurdist extreme to question how ‘informed’ consent can really be, and asking ‘How much do you really want to know?’

Created and performed by multi-award-winning maverick of the stage Eliza Sanders, Manage Your Expectations helps us to see the limits of the power to communicate and our failures to say what we mean. Through movement, multimedia, and razor-sharp wit, it examines the impossibility of perfect communication, musing on the influence of context, identity and personal history while creating something beautiful from our collective mess.

“Clever, witty, evocative, subversive, immersive, despairing, poignant, personal and universal” — Deirdre Tarrant, Theatreview

“Beautifully vulnerable” – Chloe Jaques, Theatreview, 2024

Full of vigour, energy, chaos and a hint of confrontation, Manage Your Expectations is a mind (and body) bending show about how we connect in an increasingly complex world. And you decide the ending…

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
