Private Pre-St. Paddy's Extravaganza on 15/3 with free band and cheap drinks

Michael from Newtown

Greetings -

The Friday Drinks Group invites you to join them on Friday, 15/3, at its private, Pre-St. Paddy's Day Extravaganza at the Cavern Club Bar. For the last 6 years, Friday Drinks has met every Friday at a different bar and presently has nearly 4,000 members. Almost all of its members are over 30.

The Cavern Club is a basement bar modeled after the Cavern Club in Liverpool, where the Beatles first started in the UK. It reminds me of similar bars in New York and London. We will have the entire bar as a private event from 7:30 to 10:00, in addition to the cheapest specials on wine, beer, and house liquor in Wellington. At 10:00, the public will join us, and we can dance for free to one of the best danceable rock bands in town.

RSVP's are essential, as the Cavern Club is small and we can't exceed its maximum capacity. To RSVP, please click

Then become a member (for free), go to its events section, choose the Pre-St. Paddy's Extravaganza, and RSVP. Thank you.

Best wishes - Michael

New play!

Cadence from Miramar

Come see a new play at BATS Theatre!

Hector Berlioz, the 19th-century French composer, and Hector Wong, Chinese Wellingtonian, inexplicably find themselves in a room together. What else are they to do but talk to each other?

Hector is a short play written by poet and musician Cadence Chung, co-directed by Hazel Perigo-Blackburn and Lewis Thomson, alongside dramaturg Jackson McCarthy.

The play follows just two characters - Hector Berlioz and Hector Wong - and their attempts to find some commonalities despite the centuries between them. Travelling through many scenarios and eras, the two loosely catalogue their lives, in a dialectic style reminiscent of a Platonic dialogue. It also involves a performance of songs from Berlioz's Nuits D'ete, with Amelia Lin on the piano and Cadence Chung as the singer.

Witty, acerbic, hilarious, and deeply poetic, this play explores how we interact with historical canons in the modern era, and shares personal experiences about racism, identity, and gender roles in contemporary Aotearoa.

The season runs from 18-22 June at BATS Theatre. For more information, and to book tickets, visit this link: bats.co.nz...
