95bFM: Stage Direction

Zoë's got plenty to keep you entertained this weekend, starting with Kura Forrester's Kura Shoulda Woulda, followed by Chekhov's The Sea Gull by Auckland Theatre Company, the National Theatre's Antony and Cleopatra, and for some wholesome listening, Harry Potter, read by Daniel Radcliffe, on Spotify. 

We've got all sorts of (virtual) theatre for you to catch this week for free, from National Theatre At Home's Frankenstein, to James Malcolm's podcast "James Malcolm Reviews James Malcom" and an absolute classic, Swan Lake, on Marquee.tv.

Zoë shares with us her favourite (virtual) theatre picks for the weekend and it's looking pretty Shakespear heavy (no surprises there). King Lear is playing through the Stratford Festival, Twelfth Night is play on the National Theatre at Home, and Silo Theatre's Instagram Artist in residence is always good to check out, this week is Hamish Parkinson.

Zoë's back this week with more virtual theatre and a review of last weeks picks. Plenty to indulge into, kicking off with The House Is Open: Live From Wellington Open Mic Night at 8pm tonight. As well as National Theatre At Home's Treasure Island, and The Shows Must Go On!'s Phantom of the Opera. Catch all of these all from the comfort of your own home. 

Zoë joins us with a bunch of top picks of theatre for your staycations. Get amongst Funny As on TVNZ on Demand, Jane Eyre on National Theatres' YouTube channel, Fleabag on Soho Theatres' streaming site and Jesus Christ Superstar on The Shows Must Go on YouTube channel. Plenty to keep us entertained.

Zoë's joining us with a plethora of theatre options to watch from the comfort of your own home. Get amongst the National Theatre at Home: One Man, Two Guvnors, or catch the Comedy Festival Gala 2019 on the telly, the Royal NZ Ballet are performing Hansel and Gretel online and inbetween all that, you can catch Rose Matafeo and Alice Snedden’s podcast: Boners of the Heart on all your podcasting platforms. Plenty to watch!

Zoë brings us a different kind of theatre guide this morning, a virtual theatre guide with her top reckons of things to entertain yourself over the next little while. Plus, a bit of theatre history! Plenty to dive into.

Zoë pops in to talk theatre, some of the shows that are still on are Scotty Cotter's Babble, and how about some opera? You can catch Eight Songs for a Mad King to fulfil all your theatre needs.

Everyone's been raving about Emilia, and we've got Roimata Templeton in studio to chat about the show. Get yourself along to Emilia at the Pop-Up Globe, this is one all women cast show that you don't want to miss.

Zoë joins us for another Stage Direction with two special guests this week Rebecca and Frankie to talk about Dungeons and Dragons and their new show, Can I Get an Underground Location and a Mythical Creature? Based on a game close to many people's hearts, this show is definitely not one to miss.
