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. Held outside at Muritai School, Eastbourne, if fine, in the hall otherwise, it is on at 7.30pm on Thursday 24th, Friday 25th and Saturday 26th February, and again the following week on Thursday 3rd, Friday 4th and Saturday 5th March. 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.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
