Show do cafe
- Hannah Playhouse
- **Show Do Café** is a joyous and heartfelt immersive performance blending dance, theatre, and music to explore the profound impact of coffee on society. Centred around Brazil’s coffee plantations and Stela’s family, the show delves into coffee's cultural, social, and emotional significance. Transitioning from colonisation in Brazil to Aotearoa, it highlights the immigrant experience and the solace of finding a chosen family. Featuring a multi-award-winning cast, **Show Do Café** is a vibrant celebration of Coffee, Culture, and Family—both lost and found—that promises to captivate and inspire.

Get Lost Cycling
- Get Lost Cycling was born out of a passion for bicycles. From the beginning, our vision was to create a workshop-centric store that would evolve into the local hub for cyclists that it is today. We love riding bikes, fixing bikes and chatting bikes. Collectively we have a broad range of experience in the cycling industry and between us there isn’t a type of bike that we haven’t worked on. After working in some of the most established and well-respected shops in Wellington, and beyond, we decided to start our own.
