Doreen McNeill’s solo exhibition, Colour Shape and Line at Zeus Gallery is now open to the public until the 9th of September.
Her works are desirable, lush and expressive. They are rich with vibrant colour and made using a myriad of techniques and textures. Hard lines often interrupt harmonious colour fields, and suggestions of places or narratives are evident.
With original art works on paper priced from $50, this exhibition is a collectors dream.
When: Until 9 September. 10am – 5pm Tues – Fri, 10am – 3pm Sat
Where: Zeus Gallery, 35 Chapel Street

Tarnished Frocks and Divas Present Zoetica- August 30
|
 |
| |
Zoetica translates roughly as ‘to live life animatedly’. Zoetica follows the story of a group of women who come together to create and launch a project like no other.
2017 Show Special Guest Stars are Jackie Clarke & Peta Mathias, renowned local singers Porina Mcleod & Caitriona Anderson. Actors Catherine Sylvester, Trish Marsden, Tania Brittain, Megan Brebnar, Carol Lyons, Tracey Bourgeois, Kay Spencer & Brenda Poutewera.
Peta Mathias joins TF&D for our 2017 show. She plays her part as a stylish executive with fingers in many pies – running her entrepreneurial empire on the technological superhighway.
Jackie Clarke is back. However, instead of strutting the stage in her full glory, in her role this year it may be a case of ‘spot the Jackie’ exhibiting her usual fun and exuberance.
The catwalk segments will intertwine edgy industrial, feminine lace and many more themes into the storyline supported by our outstanding dancers.
When: August 30- September 02
Where: ASB Arena at Baypark

Detour Theatre presents ‘The Kitchen Witches’ by Caroline Smith
Isobel Lomax and Dolly Biddle are B Grade cooking show hostesses who have hated each other for thirty years, ever since Larry Biddle dated one and married the other.
When circumstances put them together on the Kitchen Witches show, insults are flung harder than food!
Dolly’s long-suffering son, the producer, tries to keep them on track, but as long as Dolly’s dressing room is one inch closer to the set than Isobel’s, it’s a losing battle.
The show becomes a rating smash as Dolly and Isobel top Martha Stewart and Jerry Springer!…
When: September 07 – 22
Where: Detour Theatre, Historic Village on 17th Avenue West
