Nightsong head to Circa Theatre
After premiering in Auckland, Nightsong (Te Pō, Mr Red Light) are now at Circa Theatre until 30 September with I Want To Be Happy!
Binka is a guinea pig in a laboratory cage. Paul is the lab assistant who looks after her. Both just want to be happy again.
Humour and pathos collide in this blackly funny odyssey starring acting greats Jennifer Ludlam (as the guinea pig) and Joel Tobeck (as the lab technician).

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
