The youth of today! Who the hell can afford to throw away a hash cookie in this economy? Great piece as always.

So funny - congrats on the job, the show sounds great - a nice little piece of kiwiana - some people still don't get the right of way stuff - especially at jolly roundabouts where I think the real rule should always be 'if someone can smash into the driver side of your car - it's not your turn to go'.

I have a friend whose dog eats knickers. It's a little sheltie and she's a small woman but I still find this concept boggling. If caught in the act so to speak, the vet can give it a vomit potion otherwise it's wait for a prize at the other end.

'Give Way- The Musical' sounds like a stroke of brilliance by playwright Steven Page. Your work will clearly bring it to much deserved public attention.

I don't know how the show ends (presumably with dancers smashing into one another) but those of us who remember that 2012 change of road rules remember it as the most stupid,pointless dangerous ,foolish bureaucratic decision ever made which would have to reversed.

And it was. Gary McCormick,former crossing monitor,Kura St School ,Titahi Bay.

"More mysterious than a pangolin, less able to be tamed than a leopard, nervier than a bat-eared fox - the theatregoer is almost beyond science." Go get 'em, Leah :D
