SUMMARY:Improv Combat: Jokes on You!
DESCRIPTION:Improv Combat returns for 2025 with more improvised comedy\, but this time\, the joke’s on you! \nAcross each performance in this four-show season\, a rotating cast of Hamilton’s finest improvisers in makeshift teams will battle against each other to win the favour (and the laughs) of their audience in a refreshing new game show format. Teams will enter each performance completely unaware of what games they will be playing\, what scenes they will create\, and what challenges host Conor Maxwell will force them to complete. These improvisers are here to bring this jokes\, but this time\, the jokes may very well be on them! \nImprov Combat: Jokes on You! will take to the stage in the Meteor theatre’s Massé Lounge and Nancy Caiger Gallery on four fortnightly Sundays from the 12th of September\, so come along and see Hamilton improv at its most spontaneous. Remember\, with improv comedy\, each show and each scene within it will be uniquely driven by suggestions from the audience. The fate of these performers is in your hands… \n\nSunday 14th September \nSunday 28th September \nSunday 12th October \nSunday 26th October \nRunning time: 90 mins \nPlease note this event is recommended for Mature Audiences: may contain coarse language and sexual references.

SUMMARY:Experience the art of local artists
DESCRIPTION:Experience the art of local artists\, June Ma and her friend Art Diorama! \n17th Sept – 4th Oct \nWed – Sat \n11am – 2pm \nJune Ma is a Chinese original from Hong Kong China\, and who immigrated to New Zealand 36 years ago. She has one daughter who is married with two young kids. They live in Hamilton close by. Ma studied three years of arts in the late 1990s in New Zealand. At Waiariki Polytechnics in Rotorua\, and then 2nd and the 3rd year was in Soulthland Polytechnic in Invercargill. She discovered she had a talent creating arts when she started her art study\, and she enjoyed a variety of media. When Ma was a child\, due to the circumstances at that time\, she had very little time or art classes available . She started work when she was 12 and also attended night school which didn’t have any arts subjects. Ma is thankful New Zealand has given her this opportunity to attend art studies\, and that she discovered art and creativity within her. \nArt Diorama is a local amateur artist originally from the UK. They create abstract art for fun. Their art is essentially elaborate doodles. Doodling is their mindfulness practice. It focusses and quietens their brain. They doodle with no set plan and draw whatever comes to mind. Each picture is an original with no copies. Friends and colleagues have told them they like their works\, so they have decided to take a risk and display them. They hope you enjoy the exhibition. \n\nThe Nancy Caiger Gallery is open 11am-2pm from Wednesday to Saturday. If you’d like to visit this exhibition outside of these opening hours\, please email kiaora@themeteor.co.nz \n
