Don Juan

Don Juan,

A Party That Tells A Story

Five of Frances’ most famous actors tell the bold and thrilling adventures of Don Juan, the world’s greatest lover. It is, literally, a party that tells a story: A sexy, fierce, raucous celebration.


Loaded with pop songs and flirting, this imaginative work will continually intrigue, delight and surprise. This is a theatrical experience unlike anything else you can see in Wellington.


It’s a celebration of our freedom… and
that niggling, constant, inevitable
feeling of never being free enough. It’s a celebration of our repression and our continual struggle to live boldly, without apology, guilt or letting our insecurities get in our way.


As well as the regular 7:30PM show, A
Slightly Isolated Dog will be hosting special Singles’ Nights performances of Don Juan over the next 2 weekends, each Friday and Saturday Night. These late night parties add a bit more mayhem and fun to the already chaotic and hilarious show. Happy Hour starts at 9.30pm in the Encore Bar, in the Circa Lobby. Bring your friends for cheap drinks and a completely unique and exciting experience, unlike any party you’ve ever been to. (GLAM Themed Dress-up night on 16 May @ 10pm – w/ a party after) Don Juan is a world premiere created by A Slightly Isolated Dog, one of Wellington’s most innovative and exciting companies. Over the last several years they’ve won many awards for making shows like Death and the Dreamlife of Elephants (2009, 2011), Perfectly Wasted (2012 - in partnership with Long Cloud Youth Theatre) and Settling (2007).
