The 10 Best Performances in New Zealand, New Zealand
New Zealand (/njuːˈziːlənd/ ( listen); Māori: Aotearoa [aɔˈtɛaɾɔa]) is an island country in the southwestern Pacific Ocean. The country geographically comprises two main landmasses—the North Island (Te Ika-a-Māui), and the South Island (Te Waipounamu)—and around 600 smaller islands. New Zealand is situated some 1,500 kilometres (900 mi) east of Australia across the Tasman Sea and roughly 1,000 kilometres (600 mi) south of the Pacific island areas of New Caledonia, Fiji, and Tonga. Because of its remoteness, it was one of the last lands to be settled by humans. During its long period of isolation, New Zealand developed a distinct biodiversity of animal, fungal and plant life. The country's varied topography and its sharp mountain peaks, such as the Southern Alps, owe much to the tectonic uplift of land and volcanic eruptions. New Zealand's capital city is Wellington, while its most populous city is Auckland.

Hidden in Christchurch’s suburb of Addington is New Zealand’s largest theatre company. In its post-earthquake refuge - an old grain shed – is a magical world of happiness, laughter, drama and intrigue, where numerous productions are staged each year. The Court Theatre is your theatre. Whoever you are.

Whilst visiting family in Christchurch we were treated to an evening at the Court Theatre. What a lovely place – easy access, easy parking, nice spacious area for drinks and a freshly made pizza before the show and an excellently produced and acted production – Easy Money.

What an awesome place to just relax and take in the surroundings, while soaking in thermal waters. Pools are at different temperatures to suit your needs, and are communal but clean. Take the time to do the terrace walk, it is great to see the thought and development of the Maori Village being established here. The steaming mini geyser surrounded by clouds of steam is really awesome !! In the trees around the pools there were Tui's singing and there was a Shining Cookoo also there in the trees.

Although it was very cold it was worth seeing this show which is outside for approximately 20 minutes. The performers explained how they lived, caught food, showed us their weapons as well as showed us their dancing with Poi, sticks etc. which was inside. Then we went along to the restaurant and we’re treated to a Hangi, however before that we had a choice of soup, we chose the Seafood Chowder which was amazing & a dessert. After this we could go outside and feed the deer. The show was great and well worth the money, and we thoroughly recommend it

My friend and I were here for a movie whilst in Auckland for a girls weekend. We were actually late for the movie we wanted to see, thanks to nav man or similar, however the staff were really good about, and let us in, we had a coupon that included a ice cream, which we asked to collect later, which didn't seem a problem. This is a very lovely cinema, theatres are a good size, chairs comfy and temperature comfortable, the restrooms are nice too and there is a lovely cafe right next door. Anyone lucky enough to have this as their local cinema are very lucky.

The Wizard ( and his apprentice Ari ) can be found in the winter often in Christchurch, as well as in Omaru on North Otago. If you come across either Wizards, ask if you can sit down a spell and have a conversation. The Wizard is well spoken and quick-witted, with a great sense of humor.
