ACT THREE PRODUCTIONS
School of Rock

Saturday 26 April, 2pm
Regent on Broadway, Palmerston North
Based on the hit movie, School of Rock follows Dewey Finn, a failed, wannabe rock star who decides to earn an extra bit of cash by posing as a substitute teacher at a prestigious prep school. There he turns a class of straight-A pupils into a guitar-shredding, bass-slapping, mind-blowing rock band. But can he get them to the Battle of Bands without their parents or the school's headmistress finding out? With its sensational live kids' rock band, School of Rock has been a hit on Broadway and the West End and features all the original songs from the movie, composed by Andrew Lloyd Webber.

AUCKLAND THEATRE COMPANY
Agatha Christie Murder on the Orient Express

Saturday 3 May, 2pm
ASB Waterfront Theatre, Auckland
It’s the winter of 1934 and the luxurious Orient Express is travelling through the night on its way from Istanbul to London, when a snowdrift stops the train in its tracks. In the first-class carriage is Hercule Poirot, the famous Belgian detective, returning home from an 'unfortunate' murder case.
​
When one of his fellow passengers is found dead, with eight stab wounds to his chest, there are no footprints to be seen in the snow. Taking charge of the investigation, Poirot reaches the only possible conclusion: the killer must still be on board the train.

NEW ZEALAND INTERNATIONAL COMEDY FESTIVAL
Abby Howells: Welcome To My Dream

Friday 17 May, 5pm
Basement Theatre, Auckland
Abby Howells takes you on a journey into her own mind. In many ways, she has everything she ever wanted. She’s a comedian full time! She lives in the big city (well, Auckland is big for New Zealand)! And in a ‘game changing’ move, she just bought some new outdoor furniture… But alas, there is still much that plagues her.
