SUMMARY:Heracles: Of Men & Beasts *WORLD PREMIERE*
DESCRIPTION:Created by award-winning company The Barden Party from New Zealand—Best Theatre Weekly Awards at the Adelaide Fringe (2024 & 2025)—Heracles is a fully original folk musical that reimagines the Greek myth of Heracles: his struggle with his darker self and his fraught relationship with Hera\, Queen of the Gods. \nBlending Greek myth with live music and a 1940s Hollywood aesthetic\, the show explores power\, patriarchy\, celebrity\, ambition\, perception\, and self-worth. Who are we when no one is watching—Hero? Villain? Man? Beast? God? As the Oracle of Delphi reminds us: “Know thyself” (Γνῶθι σαυτόν). \nThis is the first half of an eventual 2.5 hour long epic show. This portion will be taken to Edinburgh Fringe 2026 with the second half of the epic being created in 2026. \nPerformed live by a cast of four\, with original music played on multiple instruments using a 4-track loop pedal\, Heracles builds a rich\, immersive soundscape with just one musician at a time. Directed by award-winning Kiwi-American actor and director Laura Irish and featuring music and lyrics by award-winning songwriter Ollie Howlett\, this is a world premiere experience you won’t want to miss. \nInternationally acclaimed for Butterfly Smokescreen and their bluegrass Macbeth\, and debuting their first year at the 2025 Edinburgh Fringe with six five-star reviews and named one of The Rec’s Top Ten Favourite Shows\, the Barden Party brings their signature blend of Greek tragedy\, live music\, and theatrical innovation to Fairfield House this December\, before touring to Edinburgh Fringe 2026. \nDates and sessions: \n17 December 7:30 pm (doors open 7:00pm for drinks & nibbles) \n18 December 7:30 pm (doors open 7:00pm for drinks & nibbles) \n19 December 6:30 pm & 8:30 pm (doors open 6:00pm / 8pm for drinks & nibbles) \n20 December 6:30 pm & 8:30 pm (doors open 6:00pm / 8pm for drinks & nibbles) \nCome early for drinks and nibbles! \nWe are partnering with Cultural Conversations – Her Business Journey\, bringing delicious kai for sale. \nPlease purchase the $15 food-add on (separate to your ticket) which will get you a pasta salad + olive and cheese pastry + a piece of coconut cake when you arrive! \n*Food also for sale on the night\, but purchasing the food ticket-add on helps us prepare so nothing goes to waste 🙂 \nBook your tickets now here and witness the myth come alive! \n*Tickets are available on a sliding scale $25-45. \nAges 12+ \n

SUMMARY:A gentle evening with Downriver
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the scenic Fairfield Courtyard for an evening of original folk rock music! \nIn preparation for the release of their debut album\, Downriver will be performing at Nelson’s most beloved heritage venue this December. Expect to be carried from calm to chaos amid friends\, leafy trees\, and summer skies. \nEnjoy a night of timeless tunes\, grab a drink\, bring a friend\, sway to the music\, and let the melodies carry you away. \nSUPPORT FROM REYNE AND DJ SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION \nMore: \nDownriver:\nDownriver is a 6-piece folk group based in Nelson\, New Zealand. Their music ranges from the heartfelt homeland balladry of 70s singer-songwriters to the existential melancholy of 90s alternative. Featuring original songs\, rich vocal harmonies\, and lush acoustic arrangements\, Downriver offers a warm\, reflective listening experience. \nReyne:\n.:. reyne is the pseudo-eponymous folk project of Wellington musician Reyne Drop. With releases focusing on the self\, sensitivity to the world around\, and ideas about our past\, present\, and future\, there is a deep connection to be found to his music by any listener. As a self producing musician he has a signature sound\, one with a mischievous personality and a tendency to subvert expectations. You’ll find yourself discovering a complex world within each song\, one which seems nostalgically familiar\, yet somehow alien at the same time. \nDJ Spontaneous Combustion:\nDJ Spontaneous Combustion will bring the heat playing some firey delights to keep the vibes hot. Expect an eclectic mix of jazz\, soul and electronica with live dubs and chops throughout. \n\nDoors open 6:30pm\nFairfield pop up bar and kitchen will be operating\n\nTickets are $25\, available via Eventfinda here\n$30 on the door
