We couldn't let this pass without giving a huge shout-out to the amazing team at the Whangārei Men's Shed!

The volunteers have been hard at work helping us create some fantastic props for our upcoming production of Dad's Army, and we are absolutely delighted with the results. Their craftsmanship, expertise, and willingness to help have gone above and beyond, and we are incredibly grateful for their support.
As Captain Mainwaring might say, they've certainly shown what can be achieved when everyone pulls together! Their work has been first-class from start to finish.
We hope you enjoy the cake as a small token of our appreciation.

Thank you for helping bring a little bit of Walmington-on-Sea to life on our stage.
"We're all doomed!" ... without wonderful community groups like the Whangarei Men's Shed!

Thank you from everyone at Whangārei Theatre Company.
