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.

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.

Interested in volunteering for Fire and Emergency New Zealand?
Your Local Fire Brigade Needs You!
Volunteering at your local Fire Brigade is probably different from what you think.
You must be 16 years of age or over to be a volunteer. If you're not yet 18 years old, you'll need the consent of your parent or guardian. Apart from that, almost anybody can join a Brigade or Fire Force, male or female, young or old, those looking for adventure or those wanting to contribute to their community.
Depending on where you live in New Zealand we have either rural or urban fire stations.
What does Volunteering for Fire and Emergency New Zealand Involve?
The role you play for Fire Emergency New Zealand depends both on the needs of your local Brigade or Fire Force and the skills that you can offer them. You can be hands-on at an emergency, or you can provide support to those who are.
You can even have a role that doesn't expose you to emergency incidents. The one aspect all roles have in common is that they require you to attend regular training nights, and that you participate in Brigade activities.

Operational firefighters carry rank, which is related to their qualifications and skills. Often the qualifications and skills that people gain from being a volunteer firefighter are beneficial in other parts of their lives. groups like schools or the elderly.
