The Vicar of Dibley
The two-week season for The Vicar of Dibley has just started, so make sure you don't miss it! Last night's opening night was a great show, and very funny whether or not you're familiar with the TV series.
Henrik Ibsen: Ghosts
Our next production is a complete change of pace. Ghosts by Henrik Ibsen also centres on a strong woman and her place in society, but provides a powerful and sometimes harrowing exploration of morals and conventions. Ghosts was written by Ibsen 135 years ago, but the story and characters are still intensely relevant today. A recent London production won a string of Olivier awards, including the award for best revival.
Our director Duncan Milne has been deeply involved with Titirangi Theatre for many years. His last production with us was last year's Messiah on the Frigidaire.
