September 16th, 2008
On Thursday 2 October we have the chance to be amongst the first to see Lorae Parry’s new play “Kate and Mrs Jones” at the Pacific Playhouse.
Kate and Mrs Jones tells the story of Francesca Jones, a first-time candidate for parliament, contesting a seat held by an arch conservative. She’s the wife of a former All-Black and the mother of a dope-smoking teenager. Kate Lawrence is a high-profile TV journalist, single and sexy, with a private past. She’s angling for a top new current affairs job, with an ambitious young man as her rival. Set in the run-up to the 2008 elections in New Zealand, “Kate & Mrs Jones” is a comedy, a love-story, and a reflection on the problems women face on the path to power.
For £18 you’ll receive a ticket to this fantastic show, a complimentary glass of wine, and the warm fuzzy feeling that comes from contributing to our campaign! We’ll also have a very special guest. You’ll find more details about the play here. To reserve your spot at this event, please contact Jacinda at jacinda@jacindaardern.org.nz
Wanted: Volunteers for election leafleting
In the 17 days before the election (date yet to be announced) we’ll be distributing leaflets at train stations in the most popular Kiwi residential areas. We’re looking for someone to help co-ordinate this work, as well as volunteers to assist with distribution. If you’re interested or want to find out more, please contact jacinda@jacindaardern.org.nz
