As Auckland celebrates the first day of City Rail Link services, discover a series of unexpected encounters throughout Midtown by acclaimed theatre company A Slightly Isolated Dog.
Across five locations around Te Waihorotiu Station, performers will transform ordinary spaces into playful moments of connection, creativity and surprise. Tell a story to poets on typewriters, have your tarot cards read, or join-in on some hula-hooping.
There's plenty to see and get involved with and best of all, it's all free!
What's on and where:
Poets on Typewriters | Mayoral Drive
Receive a personalised poem created on a vintage typewriter and take home a unique keepsake from the day.
Interactive Storytellers | Wellesley Street, Victoria Street
Step into a story made just for you. Two performers will craft original tales with audience members, drawing on your ideas to create adventures, romances and fantastical worlds inspired by Auckland and beyond.
Dancer & Hula Hooper | Elliott Street
Watch incredible hula-hooping skills in action or join in yourself. Alternating with an energetic dancer creating an open and welcoming dance floor, this invites everyone to get moving.
Fortune Tellers | Outside Te Waihorotiu Station (Victoria Street exit)
Stop by for a playful tarot reading and glimpse what the future may hold. Or stop by to watch a larger, more theatrical reading on the street.
