The third and final last play is "Cherish " by one of New Zealand’s foremost playwrights, Ken Duncum. Its an award-winning drama about two couples and the children they share and examines what happens when good intentions run up against the hard realities of human need.
'The strength of Ken Duncum's extraordinary and exciting play, Cherish, lies in his ability to dissect with surgical skill the tangled emotions of his characters and expose them clearly and convincingly while he ratchets up the tension with an intriguing plot. ‘ (Dom Post Wellington)

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
