Each summer the Shoreside Theatre presents two genuine Shakespeare plays under the stars in The PumpHouse Amphitheatre. You have the choice of a comedy or tragedy – or both! Generous discounts when booking for both shows.

Romeo and Juliet
This play is one of Shakespeare’s most popular works. In Verona a feud rages between two families, the Montagues and the Capulets. Romeo Montague meets young Juliet Capulet at a ball. The teenagers fall in love and secretly marry. Desperate, Juliet and her friar concoct a plan for her to be with her one true love, Romeo – but at what price?

The Comedy of Errors
Shakespeare’s earliest comedy - two sets of identical twins wander around Ephesus unaware of the others’ existence. Typical of the best farces, they are of course hilariously mistaken for each other in a crescendo of confusions.

Real Shakespeare under the stars in the outdoor PumpHouse Amphitheatre!

Howdy all. Here at Wasp Wipeout we thought we'd give you some information on how to deal with the wasp that most populates urban gardens - the paper wasp.

Paper wasps can be easily identified by their long, drooping back legs and laid-back, slow style of flying.

Asian, Australian and European paper wasps have gradually made their homes around our houses and fences and over the past few years and while they are useful for some unwanted bugs like the great white cabbage butterfly, unfortunately they aren't picky and have been feasting on our monarch butterfly caterpillar and other useful native bugs as well.

At Wasp Wipeout we are working hard to help raise funds to wipe out the most invasive species of wasps - the vespula (common and German) variety which inhabit a lot of our bush areas and regularly invade picnics and barbecues. To help us fight this species you can donate here

If you want to find out more about paper wasps, you can read the story and watch the video here

The team concentrated on clearing weeds along the border of the boardwalk at the western edge of the park. Earlier plantings of native trees had become a bit overgrown with weeds so a good cleanup here was warranted. The team also managed to haul a footbridge out of the Nukumea Stream. This footbridge had washed downstream in an earlier flood.
Friends of Alice Eaves Bush would respectfully remind anyone using the park to remember to spray their footwear before entering the reserve. Keep to the paths. Keep dogs on leads.This is to prevent the spread of kauri dieback. If this disease infects kauri trees in the park it would most likely result in Alice Eaves Bush being closed to the public.
Anyone interested in joining the group to help in the park would be most welcome. The group meets at the park on the first Saturday of each month, weather permitting
