'The Night Mechanics' is a tale where water is no longer free. This is the future. "If you don’t let us dream… we won’t let you dream.’ The world has lost control of fresh water. A fluke of nature puts reluctant Hine on a collision course with the corporate monster that is ’The Water Company." Inspired by the world today – the fight for clean water + tino rangatiratanga. This award winning play weaves physicality + text, "…furious and alert." - The Pantograph Punch "…a poetic play that resonates beyond." - Theatreview "…a truly fascinating piece." - The Dominion Post Presented with support by WAITĪ Productions. 'The Night Mechanics' is the vital play by Mīria George + features Sarita Keo Kossamak So, Amanda Noblett, Raai Badeeu + Taungaroa Emile. Sound Design by Karnan Saba + Costume Design by Sopheak Seng + Prop Design by Tony De Goldi. 'The Night Mechanics' is produced by Tawata Productions.

Two shows have sold out - third date now released. Pop your clutch and hang on for the ride of your life, as we go back to the nifty fifties and celebrate the most iconic musical in movie history! Break out the Brylcreem and stretch your leather – we’re hopelessly devoted to delivering the most bangin’ Blue Baths bash yet… and you’re the one that we want! Grab your white socks, winkle pickers, poodle skirts and stovepipes ‘cos we’ll be crowning our Prom King and Queen! But remember “It doesn’t matter if you win or lose, it’s what you do with your dancin’ shoes!” The Blue Baths and the 50s go together like rama lama lama ka dinga da dinga dong, so Big Daddies and Cute Chickies, let your summer days drift away and give in to the Summer Nights with hits, hotrods, cool cats and charming comedy – there are worse things you could do! Grease is The Word!
