Great comedy on locally
Local theatre (the award-winning Butterfly Creek Theatre Troupe in Eastbourne) is staging A Midsummer Night's Dream, Shakespeare’s most loved comedy, starting next week. Cast is being described as amazing by those privileged to see them in rehearsal and, with stunning costumes and accompanying music, this magical comedy is the tonic we can all do with right now.

Tickets available through Eventfinda www.eventfinda.co.nz... or from the Artisan Co-op Shop in Eastbourne. Audiences limited to 50 per night so get in quickly! Masks and vaccine passes required.
