“Things I Know to be True” at Circa Theatre.
From August: Osage County to Joyful and Triumphant, Circa Theatre has a rich history of celebrating family. With rich insight, brilliant humour and a whole lot of heart, Andrew Bovell - the writer of When the Rain Stops Falling and Lantana - paints a vivid portrait of home: the expectations that trap us and the love that keeps us coming back.
Co-produced with The Court Theatre, Things I Know to be True has just finished a record-breaking sold-out season in Christchurch receiving standing ovations and Circa Theatre is proud to present this “intricate, inventive study of family life” as part of its 45th anniversary celebrations. Tickets selling fast!
‘A thing of beauty, exquisitely observed. An absolute gem.’★★★★★ — The Daily Telegraph
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
