Death. Love... can you have it both? Yep.
17 July 2006
Hello BATS whanau,
Two shows, one last week, both awesome - enough said! If you need any more reasons to book, see below...
Next week we have two shows opening - A homage to a young activist, and a tawdry tale of the American mid west. Both very different, both shaping up to be much talked about!
Also next week are a couple of special fundraising shows for Wheeler's Luck, to help those boys get over to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. A worthy cause to throw $20 at if ever I saw one.
All of the deets on this upcoming excitement follows, and we are still looking for the new Front of House Manager of our dreams... email bats@bats.co.nz for more info on this job.
Arohanui,
BATSxxxx
