Also, opening on Thursday for three nights only - the return of Micetro - the hugely popular improvised game show.

Next week look out for Mel Johnston's documentary screening Confidence in Me, about applying for project funding from Creative New Zealand.

Hit REPLY to BOOK NOW. Tell us how many tickets you would like to which show - you can pay when you attend the performance as we don't take credit card bookings. We will email to confirm your booking.

Wedding Speeches

Season: Tuesday 1 - Saturday 5 July

Millen Baird has written and performs in this critically acclaimed one-man show which features twenty different characters at the wedding reception of newly weds, Curtis and Marion. During the one hour performance, relationships are examined, especially that of the bridegroom and his father Matthew who has appointed himself emcee for the evening. Wedding Speeches premiered at the SiLO Theatre in June 2002, and was performed at BATS in March 2003 as part of Fringe NZ - receiving rave reviews.

Micetro Season: Thursday 3 - Saturday 5 July

Time: 6.30pm

Tickets: $12 waged $10 concession

The hit improvised comedy show returns to BATS for three nights only. With its ³Whose Line Is It Anyway² style fun, MICETRO is a great night out for all. Each night the performers are chosen at random by the director to perform scenes, songs, sagas, and perhaps a poem ­ completely unscripted and unrehearsed. The audience votes on each scene and performers are eliminated until there is only one left ­ the MICETRO! ooooooh aaaaaaaaah.
