Featherston Booktown at Festival of Christmas 📚🎄
The Bookseller at the End of the World
Tuesday 12 July 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM
Greytown Town Hall
Best-selling author Ruth Shaw runs two tiny bookshops in Manapouri (Fiordland) and has written a delightful memoir called "The Bookseller at the End of the World". In conversation with indie bookseller Susan Jane Ryan (Mr Feather's Den Oddities & Delights), Ruth will weave together tales of the characters who visit her bookshops, musings about favourite books, and fantastic stories from her life - which may include the time she was held up by pirates while sailing the Pacific! You can buy her charming book on the night for signing.

Tap Fusion opens Wellington Fringe Festival
New Zealand’s home-grown Tap Dance show, Tap Fusion, will be opening the Wellington Fringe Festival at the Hannah Theatre this weekend. The show is a unique collaboration of New Zealand’s top Tap dancers performing alongside artists of Street Dance, Swing Dance and live musicians. This will be the first time a Tap show has been seen at the Fringe Festival.
Tap Fusion is the work of former New Zealand Dance Champion brothers Brandon and Cameron Carter-Chan. They say the show is designed to expose the diversity of New Zealand artists through Tap Dance by inspiring, uplifting, and promoting the idea of creative collaboration, encouraging people to work with artists outside their social circle, and to increase opportunity and strengthen the arts community as a whole.
Tap Fusion is on at The Hannah Theatre, 12 Cambridge Terrace, Wellington on 13th & 14th February.
