What's on this week? Monday 13 – Sunday 19 January 2014
The Harlequin Players Presents: The Three Little Pigs Grow Up

Saturday 11am and 2pm
Sunday 11am
Avebury Park, 9 Evelyn Couzins Avenue
$8 per person
An hilarious blend of fairytale characters and the Christchurch rebuild in this fun-filled family show.
Mrs Sow’s pigsty is bursting at the seams so her teenage triplets decide to build their own houses. They call on Master
Builder Bob and a mate in the Council for consent but will they get approval?
Meanwhile, on the farm, the three Goats Gruff find out the truth about the ugly troll, the three Bears have a pie stolen
and a silly little lamb keeps asking, “Are you my Mother?”
Come and enjoy this mixed-up musical play, let the kids wear dress-up, bring a picnic and indulge in a family day out!
