Synopsis:
This 2011 Rugby World Cup it's not just the boys who are performing.... Watch out WORLD! Meet the CheerBlacks! Jessica, Lucy and Dakota are three passionate, patriotic dancers with varying degrees of cheer-ability- but what they lack in skill they make up for with their enthusiasm and dedication. their hard work pays off when they win the chance to cheer for the All Blacks at the Rugby World Cup, 2015 Dubai! With their nation's hopes and dreams held tightly in their manicured hands they embark on the biggest adventure of their lives. But after a night of Dubai debauchery they wake to find All Black golden boy Tane has mysteriously disappeared... Hair and trust is torn, nails and hearts are broken, spray tans and secrets are revealed as team loyalty disintegrates. How will they prove their innocence and claim their rightfully earned spot backing their boys in the world cup final? Will all their dreams come crashing down? Death By Cheerleader is a cheeky, ballsy, comedic romp that will leave you with a spring in your step and a large grin smeared across your face. the tried and true combo of comedy, Drama and upbeat choreography (and a rare insight into the secret life of cheerleaders!) ensures Death by Cheerleader is a night out not to be missed!

Synopsis:
Sisters Amy Waller and Catherine Waller have collaborated with designer, Naomi Bisley to create a new NZ work inspired by their grandmother Gloria Stanford, and her remarkable life during WW2. GLORIA explores a simultaneously enchanting and bleak wartime world, infused with the strange logic of memory and time. This fierce and delicate taleenters into the imagination and love between a grandmother and her granddaughter. the domestic can become fantastical and stories can morph from film noir, to adventure to dreamscape, to fairytale, in the blink of an eye. It is a journey into the heart of a charming and vivacious woman where objects help to unravel intricate stories involving letters never received, soldiers believed dead returning home, flickering romances, love affairs with movie stars and desperate war brides jumping ship. War bride to an American Solder, Gloria Stanford's left leaning views put her at odds with the American Authorities when she was forced to leave her homeland with the contingent of New Zealand brides of American Service men and ship off to live with a soldier who was close to a stranger. Distraught and struggling with their newborn baby, Gloria faced the American military and left the ship in the middle of the night. This Auckland Girl's Dramatic dash from the ship made headlines around the world as 'the bride who wouldn't leave NZ'. Fan mail swarmed the Mt Eden letter boxes to reach the '21 year old, attractive, medium blonde hair, Mrs Gloria Schmidt'. GLORIA is a window into the memory of a person's life, and an exciting journey into the heart of a woman as she recalls the secrets, struggles and adventures of her past. - http://www.theatreview.org.nz
