Truth is overrated.

STAB 2009: commissioned by BATS Theatre with funding from Creative New Zealand. STAB originated in 1995 from BATS Theatre’s desire to initiate a commission that allowed theatre artists to experiment in a supportive environment. The STAB commission is an essential part of the BATS annual programme and can be accessed by all performance media: dance, theatre, opera, music, film, interactive media and magic!

Live at Six by Dean Hewison and Leon Wadham is a newsroom thriller, examining the intense rivalry between New Zealand’s two major television news programmes. 

When a scandalous video of one TV News anchor is leaked online, the competing stations use the same footage to create two vastly different news stories, each pushing their individual agendas and racing towards that 6pm deadline – all in real time and live on stage. Live at Six promises to be a relevant, exciting, immediate and engaging theatre experience, starring some of New Zealand’s finest actors - Grant Roa (Whale Rider), Phil Grieve (Bridge to Terabithia, King Kong), Michele Amas (Duggan), Phil Vaughn (What Now, Big Wednesday) and Nathan Meister (Black Sheep, Under the Mountain).
