We have had to make the heartbreaking decision to not platform any more shows for the remainder of 2021. We have laid out the range of factors that brought us to this decision and what this means for our current programme and the artists involved here: basementtheatre.co.nz/news/2021/10/1…

“Bring a spare pair of undies because you're going to get WET.” @PelenakekeBrown reviews Fala Muncher: a Pasifika, queer-led production. Joyful + poignant storytelling of queer identity, familial ties + wrestling with ourselves. @Basementspace pantograph-punch.com/posts/A-Review…

Friday at @Basementspace: No Homo: Queer Comedy! No Homo is serving up yet another lineup of hilarious queer talent, hosted by the terrific @JamesMustapic and headlined by Liv McKenzie! No Homo: Queer Comedy usually sells out so bookings are essential: aucklandpride.org.nz/no-homo-queer-…

@AkldTheatreCo @Basementspace @Miss_Canton remembers her own experience growing up Chinese in Aotearoa. "Where were those stories? Growing up in the world thinking you Maybe Don’t Exist isn’t an uncommon feeling for people with kaleidoscopic identities (see: The Diaaaaaspora)." pantograph-punch.com/posts/yang-you…
Basement Theatre retweeted
"Yang/Young/杨 dutifully lifts the tropes of the quintessential coming-of-age story with a contemporary, Gen-Z twist." Alice Canton responds to @AkldTheatreCo's newest play Yang/Young/杨 filled with witty emerging actors and crew. @Basementspace pantograph-punch.com/posts/yang-you…
