What’s on SECONDARY STUDENTS CHOIR SCI-FI SUNDAYS @ SPACE PLACE
Today
Experience the New Zealand Secondary Students
Choir at a special concert in Wellington’s Sacred Heart Cathedral tonight from 7.30pm. The choir will perform a vibrant repertoire, including works from Pachelbel to Eric Whitacre, and plenty of great Kiwi music. Tickets from nzsschoir.com.
A TIME LIKE THIS
A Time Like This is the touching, yet at times horrific story of World War I veteran Douglas Chapman. It’s 1984 and he’s just marched in the Anzac parade, feeling lonely and sad that his life has become so small and empty. He drinks and recalls his life in the final weeks of the war. BATS Theatre; 8pm.
Free HIKOI FOR HUHA
Join the Helping You Help Animals (Huha) team for a community dog walk on Sunday. It’s a great way to explore the dogfriendly walks in Lower Hutt and to get active with the whole family. Bring water, poo bags and a koha for Huha. The walk around the Korokoro dam loop will start at the Oakleigh St entrance; 2pm.
SUNDAY JAZZ: JOSH SIMON
Get along to The Rogue and Vagabond on Sunday afternoon for some easy afternoon jazz. This weekend’s offering features original music and interpretations of jazz standards from saxophonist Josh Simon and a handful of other musicians; 5pm.
Tomorrow
Go back in time with family favouriteBack to the Future. The 80s classicstars Michael J Fox as Marty McFly – a 17-year-old high school student accidentally sent 30 years into the past in a time-travelling DeLorean invented by maverick scientist Doc Brown. Space Place at Carter Observatory; 6.30pm.
CELEBRATING JIM HENSON
As part of the Jim Henson Retrospectacle , join some of his colleagues, collaborators and friends for an intimate conversation about the Muppets and Fraggle Rock creator’s unique contribution to the world. Te Papa; 3.30pm. Tickets from Ticketmaster.
