I liked Brave.

Pretty sure that 2013 is the Year of Awesome Stuff for Auckland (official name is a work in progress.)

This bloody movie. People have been full of opinions on Les Misérables since the movie came out, and even more so since it became a Golden Globe winner in three categories and Academy Award contender.

Auckland Arts have been growing from strength to strength each year – 2013 brings a varied and colourful range of events and performances.

I love ballet. I love it for its apparent effortlessness; I love it for the supreme effort of the dancers who make their performances appear this way; I love that stories filled with meaning can be portrayed with such talented and heartbreaking physicality without a word said.

Legally Blonde. You may recall this was a hit 2001 movie starring Reese Witherspoon and Luke Wilson. This was turned into Legally Blonde The Musical in 2007 by some enterprising producers.

What do you have planned for next year?

Say, around March?

If you’re in Auckland, I’d fully recommend checking out what’s on for the Auckland Arts Festival.

For God’s sake go and see this production.

That is all.

 Feeling lazy, Auckland? A little bit...idle? Lacking energy, enthusiasm, drive? Do you know someone that needs three and a half cans of Red Bull poured down their throat and a firm kick in the proverbial before they do anything remotely productive?
