The Tempestuous
A Shrew’d New Comedy by Will Shakespeare and Penny Ashton
Sicily’s beloved King Enzo is dead.
Now Princess Rosa, a stroppy spinster, must navigate the tempestuous waters of belching Step-Fathers, lusty suitors, popping cod pieces and menopausal witches, to face her destiny.
Award Winning Comedian Penny Ashton (writer and director of Circa’s smash hit Sense and Sensibility, Promise and Promiscuity, Olive Copperbottom) presents her latest literary solo musical with this Shakespearean frolic. She’ll spark 13 characters into life in an Elizabethan tale of magic, meddling and puffed bull’s puzzles.
“..a well-crafted and deftly performed production of a witty and intelligent show. I very much appreciate the skillful use of Shakespearean material throughout.” Theatreview
“… a funny and clever romp…an excellently written script that Shakespeare himself would be proud of.” Theatrescenes

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
