Lawns are located in all Wellington Central areas including Karori, Ngaio, Khandallah, Johnsonville and Newlands. You can choose a selection of them so that you can work in the areas that most suit you. I started my original franchise this time last year and by the end of Spring I had built it up from 35 lawns to over 60. Spring is the best time to get started. Sale comes with a trailer which has Crewcut signwriting and a Testarosa Lawn mower so you will just need to purchase a weed eater and leaf blower and any other tools you might need. Please contact me for more info.

Price: $15,500

Can theatre and arts change attitudes and behaviour?

In this world of information overload, do we need to make more space for artistic engagements with the issues that matter? Can theatre provoke new thinking on social justice, inequality, poverty, climate change and other big challenges of our time?

Award-winning playwright and researcher in creative communication and creative activism Dr Tilley shares insights from performance-based projects she’s pioneered, including Climate Change Theatre Action, Te Hā Tangata: Human Library on Homelessness, and JustUs (about youth justice).

Dr Tilley will discuss how these projects not only inform but also take audiences and participants on an emotional journey that can lead to profound changes in attitudes and even behaviour.
About the speaker

Associate Professor Elspeth Tilley writes plays and teaches creative activism at Massey University, Wellington. Her short political plays have won festivals worldwide and been published in the USA, UK, Canada and New Zealand. She received the Playwrights’ Association of New Zealand Outstanding Achiever award in 2018.
