    BAYCOURT COMMUNITY & ARTS CENTRE

    KISS THE FISH

    Baycourt Community & Arts Centre kicks off June with the fabulous Indian Ink Theatre Company performing KISS THE FISH (check out The ARTbopSHOW promos) Touring New Zealand from 4th June to 26th July 2015 Kiss the Fish starts in Tauranga on Thursday 4th June at Baycourt. What’s KISS THE FISH about? “Feel the hot breath of a wild monkey on your neck and experience “songs that make you tingle” Indian Ink unleashes an untamed tropical island complete with devilish blue monkeys onto the stage. Accompanied by a sumptuous live score this show is hilarious, heartfelt and profoundly kissable. Reaping and sowing were never Sidu’s strong points, but he discovers the meaning of both when a new resort offers him riches and the chance to change the life of his village forever. Puppetry and Balinese comic mask are given a riotous reinvention by theatrical magicians, Indian Ink.”

    Thursday 4th to Saturday 6th June 7.30pm

    Prices: A Reserve $55. B Reserve Adult $45 B Reserve Senior/Student/Groups/Child $40., C Reserve Adult $30., C Reserve Senior/Student/Groups/Child $25.
