Femme Fiction

THURSDAY MAY 9, 7:00PM
FRIDAY MAY 10, 7:00PM
SATURDAY MAY 11, 7:00PM

“Femme Fiction” is a grass-roots, homegrown theatrical experience that delves into the essence of femininity. This originally devised and written work, which underwent a development season with the support of the Palmerston North City Council (PNCC) in 2023, is now ready to captivate audiences with a fully staged show, thanks to the backing of PNCC once more with Creative Communities funding.

The show poses the thought-provoking question, “What is Femininity?” and answers it through a tapestry of real stories and experiences drawn from a diverse cross-section of our community. Audiences will be treated to a rich mosaic of monologues, scenes, and bite-sized moments that promise laughter, enjoyment, and a deep connection.

Brought to you by the same company that presented the sold-out season of “The V Monologues” and recently oversaw the successful 2024 season of Manawatu summer Shakespeare’s “Much Ado About Nothing,” “Femme Fiction” is a testament to the company’s commitment to powerful storytelling.

At the helm is the award-winning director Rhian Firmin, whose previous works include “V Monologues,” “Romeo & Juliet,” and “Much Ado About Nothing.” Under Firmin’s intuitive leadership, the ensemble invites you to a celebration of femininity that is inclusive and affirming for all.

“Femme Fiction” is more than just a show; it’s a movement. It encourages us to sink our teeth into the narrative, ground our feet in the stories, open our arms, and wholeheartedly embrace the multifaceted nature and energy of femininity. Join us for a striking journey that affirms femininity is for EVERYONE.

NZTrio presents: "Triptych 1: Unquiet Dream"

FRIDAY MAY 24, 7:00PM

Described as a “national treasure” and “New Zealand’s most indispensable ensemble” (William Dart, NZ Herald), NZTrio is renowned for its eclectic repertoire, outstanding talent and warm kiwi stage presence. Any preconceptions of classical music being stuffy or intimidating are smashed by edgy repertoire, venue ambiance, and post-concert manaakitanga. Bringing together three incredibly accomplished artists: Amalia Hall (violin), Ashley Brown (cello) and Sarah Watkins (guest pianist), every NZTrio performance powerfully reaffirms the importance and cathartic nature of a live musical experience in today’s digital world. Expect to be affected.

Benjamin Britten Introduction and Allegro for piano trio
Lera Auerbach Trio No. 2 Triptych - This Mirror Has Three Faces
Chris Cree Brown New Work
Felix Mendelssohn Trio in D minor Op. 49

Journey through a diverse musical landscape beginning with Benjamin Britten's 'Introduction and Allegro for Piano Trio', a masterpiece that showcases his distinctive harmonic language and rhythmic vitality. Next, immerse yourself in the enigmatic world of Lera Auerbach's 'Trio No. 2 Triptych - This Mirror Has Three Faces', a thought-provoking exploration of reflection, identity, and transformation, structured as a triptych with three distinct movements, each inviting introspection. Adding a touch of Aotearoa is a new work by a talented New Zealand composer Chris Cree Brown. Finally, we conclude with the rich and expressive 'Trio in D minor Op. 49' by Felix Mendelssohn, which beautifully balances classical structure with Romantic lyricism.

Please Adjust Your G-String

SATURDAY JUNE 15, 7:00PM

“Please Adjust your G-string” is a hilarious romp through an OE with a difference. Margaret Austin left New Zealand in 1975 with no idea what lay ahead on the other side of the world. Blessed – or cursed – with a sense of adventure she turned up her nose at London, and went for Amsterdam, Athens and Paris, diving into experiences and situations not for the faint hearted. Some of them involved G strings, one or two were downright dangerous, and all of them added up to a life of unique discovery.

Daniel Champagne

SATURDAY JULY 20, 7:30PM

The young virtuoso recently described as “the finest guitar player of this generation” has fallen in love with New Zealand and after sellout tours through North America and Europe he will be back for an extensive national run of 35 shows!

Growing up in the Bega Valley on the Far South Coast of New South Wales, Australia the story goes that the young singer-songwriter and one of a kind guitar virtuoso first picked up his instrument of choice as a 5-year-old following in the footsteps of a musical father. He be-gan writing songs at 12, training classically throughout his teens and performing wherever he could, honing his craft and developing the dynamite live show that he is renowned for today. At 18 he finished school, turned professional and hit the road without looking back.

The following 15 years have seen him independently release 7 studio albums, tour relent-lessly around the globe, play some of the biggest festivals under the sun and share stages with the likes of Tommy Emmanuel, INXS, John Butler, Lucinda Williams, Ani DiFranco, Judy Collins and Rodrigo y Gabriela.

He has been described as “the finest guitar player of this generation”, “a leading light in acoustic music” and “a performer that must be seen to be believed” and in July and August he will bring his never ending world tour back to New Zealand!

WHAT THE PRESS SAY..
“The word Prodigy seems to entirely fall short of this soft-spoken young man’s skills, he co-axes sounds and melodies out of his instrument that literally drop jaws.” The Calgary Herald, CANADA

“Today I saw the future of Folk – Festival goers flocking in the thousands towards the main stage to witness a young musical phenomenon from Australia dish out an absolute show-stop-per.” The Firefly Column, USA

“Daniel Champagne is a crossroads. Fusing the strong traditions of Blues, Folk and other roots art with pop showmanship and admirable lyrical ability. I firmly believe that he will be-come an ambassador for roots music in a time where it desperately needs representation.” The Indie Blender, CANADA

“reinventing roots guitar” Rhythms Magazine, AUSTRALIA

“Watching Daniel Champagne perform is a once in a lifetime experience. He is a true prodigy that plays like no one else could possibly play unless they spent at least two lifetimes study-ing the art.” BW Review, NEW ZEALAND

“Daniel Champagne exudes a natural ease on stage, as he sings poignant lyrics and beauti-fully crafted melodies that invariably whisk the heart up with grand romanticism. Coupled with an exhilarating guitar talent that transcends mere acoustic playing to replicate a whole band, Champagne is just magical” Themusic.com.au, AUSTRALIA

"You feel as if he just invented the instrument yesterday and was discovering its possibilities afresh” Ted Gioia (American jazz critic and music historian)
