MySpace Freebies hit Wellington

Back in Feb those lucky Auck­land MySpace peo­ple had the chance to check out Ever­more for Free.

Well Welling­ton, our time has come and it’s a good­ie. If you are a MySpace mem­ber just add The Black Cur­tain to your MySpace friends and you’ll be told the secret squir­rel loca­tion of the free screen­ing of Hot­Fuzz this Fri­day.

Why Go?
Well, to start it’s free.
To fol­low it’s by the genius minds behind Shaun of the Dead
To con­tin­ue you get a spe­cial appear­ance & intro­duc­tion by Peter Jack­son.
If that’s not enough — it’s free, peo­ple!

My only hope is that Simon Pegg is as fun­ny in per­son now as he was when he was in Welling­ton for the Laugh Fes­ti­val back in the deep dark ’90s.

Heavenly Circus

The genius minds behind Heav­en­ly Bur­lesque are back again for the Fringe and this time it’s free. Grav­i­ty and oth­er Myths is a spec­tac­u­lar out­door new cir­cus show­case inspired by the stars!

Vist Queen’s Wharf at night this week and you see some of the coun­try’s best new cir­cus, per­form­ing on a pur­pose-built out­door cir­cus rig, com­bined with pyrotech­nics, spec­tac­u­lar light­ing, sound and AV design.

I’ve been promised acts will use fire, trapeze, bungy, hula hoops, dance and object ani­ma­tion, all to the local­ly grown music of Rhi­an Shee­han, Mod­ule and more. This is prop­er cir­cus peo­ple, not with evil clowns.

Plus here is your chance to run away with the cir­cus in your lunchtime — Welling­ton Cir­cus Trust are run­ning intro­duc­to­ry cir­cus work­shops at lunchtimes (12.30 – 1.30) on the days of the show per­for­mances.
