SUMMARY:The Deadbeat Opera
DESCRIPTION:“There are some who are in darkness / And the others are in light / And you see the ones in brightness / Those in darkness drop from sight.”\n-Mack the Knife \nLadies and gentlemen\, we’re rolling up to the Pump House with another miserable tale! \nFollowing on from the success of Woyzeck we present to you a low-life\, low-budget opera performed by a highly talented cast of losers and deadbeats. \nThe Deadbeat Opera is Free Theatre’s adaptation of John Gay’s The Beggar’s Opera (1728) a revolutionary and then immensely popular ‘anti-opera’ and forerunner to the modern-day musical where criminal gang leaders and prostitutes sung well known songs (by Johann Pepusch) and folk ballads about corruption\, poverty and injustice; and Bertolt Brecht’s The Threepenny Opera (1928) an adaptation 200 years later of Gay’s work with new music in the form of cabaret songs composed by Kurt Weill. \nIn Brecht’s adaptation he reverses the moral positions of the bankers and police with that of the beggars and thieves: “Who is the greater criminal: he who robs a bank or he who founds one?” He also wanted to show that high moral standards are only possible when one can afford them: “Food is the first thing\, morals follow on”. \nThe Deadbeat Opera juxtaposes our current period of the 2020s with the historical periods of Gay and Brecht – the early days of the Industrial Revolution during the 1720s and the Great Depression during the 1920s. \nHester Ullyart performs the role of gang leader Macheath and is joined by a mix of experienced local performers – Aaron Boyce\, Heather McFarlane\, Sarah Clare Judd\, Greta Bond\, Chris Carrow and Marian McCurdy; and our gang of musicians – Reuben Derrick\, Sam White\, Chris Reddington and Doug Brush. \nDirected by Peter Falkenberg with design by Stuart Lloyd-Harris\, the heritage Pump House once again provides the perfect setting. Enjoy a beverage before the show and during the interval at our ‘Beggars and Bankers Pumphouse Bar’ where you’re guaranteed to get what you paid for. \nWe are performing The Deadbeat Opera in honour of our collaborator\, sister and friend Samantha Boyce-Da Cruz who worked with us to develop the project last year. Sam passed away unexpectedly in February. She is very much with us in all of our thoughts and we dedicate this opera to her. \n

SUMMARY:Fur Patrol
DESCRIPTION:Banished Music are ecstatic to announce the return of one of Aotearoa’s all time favourite bands\, with two very special Fur Patrol shows happening this September. \nFrom the moment their debut EP Starlifter landed in 1998 until their swansong album Local Kid arrived in 2008\, Pōneke’s Fur Patrol left an unforgettable legacy behind them. Their debut album Pet rode high in the New Zealand Albums Charts for an astonishing thirty weeks\, while the single Lydia knocked Destiny’s Child off the number one spot in the singles chart. Second album Collider was a rocking affair that saw the band taking Australia by storm and earning a reputation as a formidable and unmissable live act. \nNow\, some twenty years since the arrival of Collider\, Julia Deans (guitar\, vocals)\, Andrew Bain (bass)\, and Simon Braxton (drums) are taking to the road again to remind us how timelessly brilliant their stonking back-catalogue really is. Anyone who caught the band’s shows in 2022 will attest that they have lost none of their potency\, power\, or live energy\, with the Ambient Light blog calling their Napier performance “a barnstorming show”. \nJoining the bill in Lyttelton and Auckland will be Aotearoa Music Awards and Taite Music Prize finalist Tom Lark\, fresh home from a UK tour and ready to warm up these shows in style. \nDon’t miss your chance to hear your favourite Fur Patrol anthems live one more time when the band take to the stage at Lyttelton’s legendary Loons\, and invade the newly announced home of rock’n’roll in Tāmaki Makaurau… Double Whammy\, plus – just announced – the band will be performing as part of Pōneke’s Great Sounds Great festival\, Saturday 31st August! \nFUR PATROL\nwith special guest\nTOM LARK \nFRIDAY 6 SEPTEMBER:\nTHE LOONS\, LYTTELTON \nSATURDAY 7 SEPTEMBER:\nDOUBLE WHAMMY\, AUCKLAND \nTickets from Banished Music\nPresale: 10am\, Friday 14th June\nGeneral on sale: 10am\, Monday 17th June \n

SUMMARY:Too Woke For Toast\, Abandoned Carparks\, Rapids
DESCRIPTION:Come on down to Darkroom for a fun night of really sad and really slow music provided by Abandoned Carparks as they come out to play their yearly show. With songs about Italian movies\, heartbreak and pondering on where life went wrong\, you don’t want to miss it\, or maybe you do. \nSupporting is Too Woke For Toast\, who in stark contrast provide fun songs and an unhinged bread based energy which will make yourself think how can someone have unhinged bread based energy but then their infectious tunes will repress that thought as you begin grooving. \nAnd with their debut outing is Rapids\, made up of local band alumni\, which I don’t know if I can mention or not so I’m just not going to because I don’t want to piss people off but anyways that’s besides the point. Rapids are said to play a mix of alternative rock\, noise and post punk and will harness these genres to create a wall of chaotic and sweet sounds\, I mean\, I want to see what they’ve got to offer\, that’s why I asked them to play\, and I’m sure you want to know what these sweet sounds are as well so that’s why you want to buy a ticket and head to Darkroom at 8pm on Friday 6th of September. \n
