"Broken String" by North Shore playwright Geoff Allen is the second play in the play reading series which continues at The Vic this Sunday 15th Nov. 4pm
It’s an engaging comic drama about quirky
Cornish settlers who are trying to save their prized baby grand piano during the Waikato wars. The arrival of a Maori woman throws them into confusion with misunderstandings of language, accents and worlds.

The third and final last play is "Cherish " by one of New Zealand’s foremost playwrights, Ken Duncum. Its an award-winning drama about two couples and the children they share and examines what happens when good intentions run up against the hard realities of human need.

'The strength of Ken Duncum's extraordinary and exciting play, Cherish, lies in his ability to dissect with surgical skill the tangled emotions of his characters and expose them clearly and convincingly while he ratchets up the tension with an intriguing plot. ‘ (Dom Post Wellington)

You are invited to our Annual General Meeting of The Victoria Theatre Trust
Monday 23 November at 7.30pm
The Vic Movie Lounge Bar.

We will be talking about the 1929 hand-painted plans of the Vic recently discovered at Auckland University and what they tell us about the building.

The bar will be open.

The Cancer Society is pleased new vaping laws will finally put an end to the marketing of highly addictive products to children and non-smokers.

From November 11, it will be illegal to sell vapes to under 18’s and advertising and sponsorship of vaping products will be banned altogether. Vaping will also be banned in legislated smoke-free areas such as:

- indoor workplaces
- cafes and pubs
- schools and early childhood centres
- public transport.

We think that everyone, especially parents need to be aware that vapes are now R18 and can’t be used in schools.
