Roger Hall's latest play at Circa Theatre
Roger Hall is back! With his latest comedy, End of Summer Time.
Experience Sir Roger Hall's End of Summer Time, the third instalment of the lovable character Dickie Hart, starring Gavin Rutherford.
Dickie Hart is told by wife Glenda they have to move from Wellington to Auckland. How will Dickie cope with apartment living, meeting new people, Covid lockdown, getting a new driver's licence…and possibly even having to support The Blues?
"Once again, clever Sir Roger Hall strikes comedy gold…End of Summer Time is a great night out. Don’t miss it!”
