Welcome to the Murder House, a deliciously dark comedy with bite sees a gang of death-row convicts set free from Auburn Prison for one wild night to tell the tragic tale of their hero, the man who invented the electric chair.

Based on a true story, the play speaks of a divided world where faith is more powerful than fact and shame drives a hard bargain. The fictional injection of real Indian scientist Chandra Bose, whose world-leading research into electricity was ahead of its time, gives an Indian Ink twist to the telling. Welcome to the Murder House features comedy, puppetry, live music, song and dance to entertain and delight whilst recounting a powerful, tragic and moving tale.

Jacob Rajan returns to the stage with a stellar cast, in Indian Ink’s biggest ever extravaganza. Experience a night of naughty fun that will leave you to decide who the real villains are.

26 May – 10 June

Bee keeping

Lloyd from Tawa

Hi

We have a bee hive and the bee keeping who used to look after it is no longer available.

We are looking for some support as we grow our skills to support it ourselves.

Any bee 🐝 keepers around Tawa who could give us some help?

We are happy to pay for time and travel.

So what do you think about the idea? And should it be paid for by dog registration fees perhaps?
