Look left, look right, look out!

Give Way – The Musical is an award-winning, hilarious satire of Kiwi attitudes. It tells the ‘unofficial’ story behind the 2012 change to New Zealand’s Give Way rule. Sophie – an idealistic young Ministry of Transport employee with a secret admirer at the next desk – wants to change the world. She starts with the country’s bizarre Give Way rule, knowing a change will make our roads safer. But she attracts a groundswell of opposition in the form of a ‘Resistance’ protest movement, who believe Sophie’s rule change will destroy the lives of decent, hard-working New Zealanders. What follows is a battle for the nation’s soul. With sharp-witted songs and hard-case characters, this charming musical is both entertaining and thought-provoking.

Review: ‘Hilarious and unique – an inherently Kiwi story with a universal message.’ Winner 2023 McNaughton South Island Play, Adam NZ Play Award, 2023
