At the Bay – by Katherine Mansfield

Welleseley College 611A Marine Drive, Days Bay, Lower Hutt, New Zealand

Wellesley College at Days Bay is the perfect setting for the first screening of this production. It is one of the few buildings that survive from 1908, when Mansfield stayed at her parents’ cottage at nearby Downes Point. Known then as Days Bay House, a hotel, the impressive facade of the main building is much the same today. The feature is a new production by local film maker Simon Hoyle (Southlight) and includes actors from Eastbourne’s Butterfly Creek Theatre Group. Directed by Anne Manchester, it also draws on many contemporary images of the setting for “At the Bay”, chosen by historian Alison Carew. Mansfield scholar

Butterfly Creek : Shakespeare’s Richard III

Muritai School Hall 166 Muritai Road, Eastbourne, Lower Hutt

Ever since the bones of King Richard III were exhumed from a Leicester City Council car park in 2012, interest in the much-maligned king continues to grow. But as far as Shakespeare was concerned, the embittered and physically deformed crown usurper was an unadulterated villain. Director of Butterfly Creek Theatre Troupe’s production in early March, Mike Butcher, believes Richard III is the best play Shakespeare ever wrote. He also believes he’s assembled the best cast to tell the story, with Colton Stuart in the main role, Allan Burne as Richard’s right-hand man Lord Buckingham, and Lian Butcher as Lady Anne Warwick, manipulated into marrying Richard
