Show description

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 four locations around the Aotea Arts Quarter, 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:

Interactive Storytellers | Mayoral Drive

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.

Poets on Typewriters | Wellesley Street

Receive a personalised poem created on a vintage typewriter and take home a unique keepsake from the day.

Tarot Card Reader | Elliott Street

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!

Dancer & Hula Hooper | Victoria Street Exit

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.
