SUMMARY:Gilly Darbey and Vikki Clayton - Return of the Divas
DESCRIPTION:Just imagine a musical fusion of Ab Fab\, Miss Piggy and the Topp Twins  and you’ve got a pretty accurate ideas of what these two are all about. Music ranging from folk\,country\, blues and self penned these ladies can deliver. \n“We take our music very seriously but we love to have fun too” \nBoth are famed for their beautiful voices and between them play several instruments.

Here are just some of their favourite reviews \n“I want to be like them when I grow up”  from an admiring young female musician (anonymous) \n“They brought the house down with their voices\, music\,  fun and laughter”  The Observer \n“Listening to them made me cry– in a good way. Go see them if you can “ Sydney Herald \n“Soft and peachy”   The Guardian  \n“Slightly bonkers but jeez they can make music”  Mojo \n“Superb voices and musicianship with a great sense of fun included”  Evening Standard

SUMMARY:A writer's journey\, when fact & fiction collide.
DESCRIPTION:The Nelson Institute presents author Chris Stuart’s talk – A writer’s journey\, when fact and fiction collide. Chris’s crime novel\, For Reasons of their Own\, won  the 2021 Ngaio Marsh Award for best first novel. \nFor Reasons of Their Own is a bleak chronicle of implacable fate\, revenge\, and murder set in 2014 in and around Melbourne\, Australia\, Originally\, this novel was conceived as an autobiography but turning it into fiction has allowed the author to write with more creative freedom. Chris calls herself a writer with a social conscience and is fascinated by the social context in which a murder takes place and this is at the beating heart of her novel. \n   Crime Fiction Critic\, December 8th\, 2021\, USA: Anyone who enjoys reading excellent crime\, mystery\, and thriller writing will love this book. I’m left eagerly anticipating what Stuart will do for an encore after writing such a brilliant and extraordinary debut novel. \nChris has worked for twenty years as a humanitarian worker with Red Cross\, Oxfam and the UN in war zones and disasters\, mainly in the Middle East. She’s witnessed the best and worst of humanity and deeply admires the strength and resilience of people who endure and thrive despite the most harrowing of circumstances. She’s influenced by Charles Dickens\, Colin Dexter\, Graeme Greene\, Ian McEwan and PD James and likens her detective to a combination of characters she’s met in her humanitarian work. \nNB. Because of road works approach Fairfield House from Trafalgar St. Usual parking pertains\, either road side or carpark.

SUMMARY:Solitude
DESCRIPTION:DramaLAB’s award winning solo show ‘Solitude’ \n“When the Roaring Lion calls my Henry\, I’m dreaming hours down to minutes…” \nIn 1913 Annie fled into the remote mountains of Kahurangi National Park to live a hidden life with her lover Henry Chaffey in ‘Asbestos Cottage’. Forty years in raw exile\, swallowed by the silence\, enslaved by the fire. This honest\, touching true story is about Annie Chaffey’s love\, loneliness\, loss and laughter. An old story from a new perspective. \n “Solitude is storytelling at its finest. Writer\, director and performer\, Martine Baanvinger\, is utterly compelling\, humorous and breathtakingly honest as Annie. Not only is this an interesting New Zealand story but it is told by an expert in an incredibly imaginative and touching way.” –  Lisa Allen\, Nelson Fringe Festival review. \n“Baanvinger draws on her training in physical theatre to create striking images of this life. The text is superbly crafted\, words are well honed\, poetic\, evocative and practical in even measures. The action on stage is complemented by an evocative and haunting soundtrack created by Mark Manson.”  Lisa Simpson – Theatreview  \nTickets @ Humanitix.com

DESCRIPTION:A potent way to enter your springtime in balance\, influenced by the equal day and night of the equinox. \nJourney on the waves of ancient sounds played live by Sika – morphed and mixed into powerful worlds within worlds \nThis Sound Journey begins with a short guided visualisation to set the scene. \nAncient instruments\, didgeridoo\, flute and drum with the natural sounds of wood\, stone\, shell and bone. \nAn epic adventure deep into a land that exists in magical realms. A Sound Journey that is more like an orchestrated soundtrack to your life’s movie. \nPlease bring something comfy to lie on\, a blanket and cushion. \n•••••••••••••••••••••••••• \nBio: \nSika is a Master Sound Artist based in New Zealand. He is dedicated to creating music and sound experiences that enhance our spiritual and human relationship with nature. Emerging into the UK festival scene 1993 Sika’s first events saw his audiences lying down with their eyes closed in what has now become globally accepted as a Sound Journey. \nThe didgeridoo forms an important foundation for his music\, however he also uses drums\, native flutes\, voice\, Maori instruments and more recently even orchestral elements. Pushing the limits of this musical genre\, his live events and studio recordings serve to open our ears and really listen. \nGiving voice to wood\, skin\, bone\, stone and shell\, his work reflects a lifetime of listening to the rhythms and sounds of nature. Life is a sound journey! Other sources of sound such as water\, fire\, trees\, animals and wind are used with the intention to build soundscapes that enable us to journey within. \nAfter years of gathering and making instruments\, Sika has recorded eleven solo albums. \nAs a collection these projects tell the story of a man who has followed his yearning to create a life grown from the roots of the past\, but sowing the seeds of the future. \nTickets @eventfinda.co.nz
