Dr Drama (James Wenley) returns to the stage with a new set of questions - but he can't make this show without you.

James and director Rae Longshaw-Park create a fun and highly interactive theatre experience to reflect on themes of loneliness and connection and the relationship between performance and wellness. 

Learn about the social origins of dramatic performance, browse James' collection of theatre programmes he started when he was 7 years old, and collaborate with fellow audience members to create your own unique performance responding to the themes of the show, Dr Drama Makes a Musical

A love letter celebrating what live theatre can uniquely do for us, while questioning how theatre can also fall short, this show attempts to give voice to both performer and audience to empower and elevate critical perspectives, play and wellbeing. Due to the interactive workshop style of the performance, only a limited number of tickets are available. Don't miss out - enrol now! Recommended for ages 13+. 

The Dr Drama shows combine performance, theory, and teaching to empower critical thinking, conversation and connection for curious audiences.

Praise for Dr Drama Makes a Show With You (2021)
"Wenley's show is artfully self-aware, broaching relevant topics such as loneliness, a shared struggle in the midst of a pandemic. Each moment links together with a common thread of hope." -  Alessia Belsito-Riera, Wellington Regional News
