  • Bless the Child: Behind the scenes

    Eight lives and three worlds collide in this thought-provoking play written by Hone Kouka and directed by poet and writer Mīria George. Take a behind-the-scenes look at this new work through our video story with the creative team and cast.
  • Five questions for Harry Giles

    Guy Somerset returns to ARTicle for a chat with Writers & Readers–bound Scottish performer, poet and “general doer of things” about game-making, spoken word and the appeal of a Chill Out Corner away from the crowd.

    Seasoned New Zealand Festival goer and Culture Club supporter Mary Hancock has some great tips for making the most of your 2018 Festival experience.

    Ursula will be a guest at 2018 Writers & Readers in Wellington, 8–11 March. Her sessions include a conversation about her writing with Lydia Wevers and a session on word fun for young readers with Nick Earls and Kate De Goldi.
  • Taking poetry to new places: Selina Tusitala Marsh

    New Zealand’s current Poet Laureate, Pasifika poet-scholar, runner, kick-boxer, Commonwealth Poet (2016) and mother of three Selina Tusitala Marsh is clearly an expert multi-tasker.
  • The Lost Generation on stage: The Select

    In this era of third wave feminism and #MeToo, Ernest Hemingway’s relentless brand of machismo might seem hopelessly antiquated. Or maybe not, argues David O'Donnell, ahead of the celebrated stage adaptation of The Sun Also Rises.
  • He Tohu exhibition looks back to the future

    He Tohu is a free, permanent exhibition at the National Library in Wellington which hosts three iconic constitutional documents that continue to shape New Zealand, including the Treaty of Waitangi and the Women’s Suffrage Petition.
  • Future Playground comes to the Festival

    We asked international artists Refik Anadol and Matt Parker what we should expect from the exciting interactive installations they're bringing to Future Playground, a digital wonderland set to delight the whole family this Festival.
  • This reading life: RA Spratt

    Rachel Spratt is a bestselling Australian author and television writer. She is known for her Nanny Piggins and Friday Barnes series of books, and will be a guest at Writers & Readers in Wellington in March.
