A great play and a great review

Bill Fenton from Whangarei Repertory Society Inc

Hello everyone... the following review was penned by Catherine McNamara after seeing Storm in a Bottle currently playing at the Octagon Theatre.
Yes, there are still some seats available if you look on the Octagon Theatre web site.
There's a cracking new play just opened at the Octagon Theatre in Whangarei. Inspired by wild weather events, local writer Cameron Tor has managed to arrange a well-balanced bluster of emotions within the confines of a mountain hut. The setting is perfect for a rerun of ancient family history with perfectly played protagonists Peter and Nico trapped in trauma while the unbothered causes of chaos, mum and dad and the success story of the family, brother Lewis make cameo appearances of depth and hilarity. Tor is in control of all his material, managing to write a last act that startled the group of seasoned English teachers within the audience, who staggered from the charming vintage theatre with tears in their eyes, or rain, or something. I highly recommend seeing it.
Thank you Catherine
