Have you had a look at the theatre's progress lately?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

It’s very likely to be the top place to see a show in New Zealand - and the view from the top of the Waikato Regional Theatre also makes for a pretty amazing experience.

With the construction of Kirikiriroa’s new $80 million theatre coming together like some particularly well-executed stage play, the Waikato Times was offered a rare opportunity to see what only those intimately involved in the project have experienced first-hand.

Have you had a look at the theatre's progress lately? Tell us more in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).

From rugged campsite to 7.5ha resort

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Grant Kilby has always loved camping. His mum was director of health at the YMCA, and he would attend YMCA camps in the school holidays. “I think it was mandatory that I was there,” he jokes.

He went on camping holidays with his parents, and later, took his own kids.
“Camping’s been in my blood.”
