Public Streak to Celebrate Final Week

By:

Lead actor from The Streaker will be baring it all as the final week of the show approaches by walking clad only in show posters on Lincoln Road, tomorrow (Friday) at 11am.

Mark Wright refuses to believe there's just one week left of a show which has enabled his love of taking his kit off.

Audiences have said The Streaker is: "Wonderful!"; "I loved it, it was awesome, very cool."; "Well and truly worth seeing."; "10 out of 10!"

If you're in the mood for a cheeky photo op, let us know and we'll be sure to get you a prime position.

Wright plays Ron Hewlett in The Streaker, a new comedy by Gregory Cooper and directed by Mark Hadlow, a middle-aged man who loses his call centre job and finds himself facing foreclosure on his home. When Ron hears a radio station is offering a million dollars to anyone who successfully streaks at the Super Rugby final he initially dismisses the idea; but as financial and familial pressure mounts, Ron must decide how far he's willing to go.

Perhaps best known for his role in the Oddfellows TV commercials, decades of television work (from the Billy T James Show to the recent reboot of Terry Tio) and numerous theatrical productions around the country; The Streaker is Wright's debut production at The Court.

The Streaker runs at The Court Theatre until 22 October. Audiences with issues around nudity are advised to avert their eyes or simply grin and bare it.
