PLT Newsletter - May 2025
- Porirua Little Theatre
- 2025 is our 75th anniversary This month in our history ~ May 1968 Roots In our production of Roots Jenny Frost had to take an on-stage bath. During one performance the tub of water was accidentality overturned by an overzealous stage hand. Jenny was not the only one who wore the bath water that night. Director Bob Cater was not amused. It was noted in the Kapi Mana News that "As part of the society's policy of making theatre available to as wide an audience as possible, the admission price is only 45 cents."

Review: After the Storm
- Salient
- Emma Salzano's After the Storm was originally a project created at Te Auaha, then went through a development season as a Lift-Off piece, and now it's making its world premiere at the New Zealand Fringe Festival. And let me tell you, I'm thrilled that it's back. It's been quite some time since I've seen a play that has genuinely touched me. And I don't say this to be disrespectful, but perhaps to acknowledge my own desensitisation towards such things. After the Storm changed that. Maybe I'm just a sucker for a good love story. But this play is more than just a romance; at its core, it's about grief and how our emotions shape our lives. The story takes place in the 1930s and follows a group of Italian immigrants who leave their volcanic island of Stromboli and start anew on the shores of Island Bay.
