Badjelly the Witch, the much-loved, utterly loony Spike Milligan classic, is this year’s Glow Show!

Nearly 100,000 Kiwi kids, parents and educators have seen a Glow Show; come and join the fun with the frolicking, witchy-poo, super-fun Badjelly the Witch!

The brilliantly nonsensical tale is being entirely reimagined with the unique Glow Show treatment.

The Glow Show’s utterly original mash-up of science, puppetry and music is a glorious experience for children and this year it will be a wonderfully nostalgic event for adults.

The goofiness of Bare Bottom Land, the giggle-inducing catch-cries like “Stinky poo to all of you!”, and the larger-than-life characters of Badjelly are set to bring a little fright and lots of fun to more than 30 venues across Aotearoa from July 5.

Don't miss out!

    Pride Elevates Presents: Mā

    Mā is a poignant devised theatre and performance poetry work that delves into themes of chosen family, motherhood, and identity. Mā is both a tribute to the artist's own mother and a powerful expression of Aiga filifilia (Chosen Family) as central to its narrative.
