The Coven on Grey Street
- Circa Theatre
- 29 April – 27 May It’s been a long time since the Weird Sisters parted ways and settled down in Hamilton. But Daphne (Helen Moulder) is getting married to Shakespearean scholar Ted (Peter Hambleton), and she’s invited Sybil (Irene Wood) and Fay (Hilary Norris) along. These three witches will find that supernatural hurly-burly is a piece of newt compared to lunch with the whānau.
