Behind the scenes Capital E National Arts Festival


This week on drama on the waterfront, we hang out with the team at Capital E as they get busy with the Capital E National Arts Festival.

After a stellar sell out first weekend of the Capital E National Arts Festival at Circa Theatre with Caterpillars, Trick of the Light Theatre presents their latest work, Beards! Beards! Beards!

Trick of the Light Theatre have been busy ensuring this show has giant moustaches, can be packed into four boxes and two suitcases, and has Christina Aguilera style recordings as part of the show.

The show has sold over 230 tickets and only a few are left for Saturday 21 March at 10am and 1pm. Bookings can be made via capitale.org.nz

Meanwhile staff at Capital E have been busy ensuring that cast member Abby Howells’ face is everywhere around town. Seriously. It’s ridiculous.
