Hello all,
The Back bar is pumping out the warming winter wines, the Young and Hungry shows are hotting up with every night and so
by this Saturday (their closing night) all three shows will be on fire - Have YOU been yet? Book now! Avoid
disappointment!
The same can be said about the shows we have opening in the next couple of weeks: can you believe BATS Theatre is
hosting the first professional production of the original Angry Young Man show, Look Back in Anger, 50 years after it
first shocked audiences? You better believe it, and you better book for that too, because it is gonna be a big one.
Come in from the cold, bring your friends, send your siblings, and we'll see you soon.
Arohanui,
BATSxxxx

How to Live in a World Full of Terrorists by Laura Staples
Who would want to be stuck with their ex anywhere, let alone held at gun point in a barricaded flat as suspected
terrorists?! Come and see it for this, and the monopoly scene.. still making me laugh since opening night...
8pm
Generator by Rochelle Bright
Set in a shed out in the country at Pauly's 21st, the same spot where his girlfriend mysteriously disappeared from his
16th party. Starring some very fine young actors and a yard glass - enough said. A little bit thriller, a little bit
mystery and a little bit Rock n Roll.
9.30pm
Butt Ugly by Thomas Sainsbury
Claudia and her band of cartoon-character freaks attempt to take on the injustices of the world and make everyone
realise once and for all just how bloody awful it is to be BUTT UGLY. For all of us who have been there, and know what
it was like...
Plus it has an awesomely wacky band who have me dancing in the aisle - brilliant to watch!
COMING SOON
Look Back In Anger by John Osborne
6th - 22nd July
8.00pm
The 50th anniversary of this landmark play of twentieth century drama is marked with its belated professional Wellington
premiere, directed by Miranda Harcourt. Awesome actors abound in this puppy, all very talented - including the lovely
Mia Blake, last seen on screen in No.2.
Lovepuke by Duncan Sarkies
11th - 22nd July
6.00pm
Lyndee-Jane Rutherford directs a rare revival of one of the funniest plays by Duncan Sarkies. It is sexy, it is sassy,
it is Wellington and its various quirks. What more do you need to warm you up in July?!
