The Bitches’ Box Give a Little Campaign

youtubewiri
The success of The Bitches’ Box nationwide tour took our breath away and that is all thanks to you, our faithful audience.We’d like to update you on our latest progress!Recently we were offered a full season at the prestigious Assembly Rooms for the 2013 Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Wooof!Edinburgh Fringe Festival is the largest Arts festival in the world.  Over 2500 shows arrive from all over the globe and a million people pour into the city to see them.

We are thrilled to be given this opportunity and hope our slice of rural, kiwi, canine life will go down a treat with the British crowds.

There is quite a task ahead in terms of funding this venture (close to $30,000 required), and although Creative New Zealand have really got in behind us with a generous grant, we are still over $10,000 short.

What started two years ago as a humble woolshed show is now headed for the International stage. With your help, these two bitches can get to Scotland and show the world what rural New Zealand has to offer!

Be it a liver treat or cattle beast rump, your contribution is received with our deepest, heartfelt thanks.
Love, Emma & Amelia

A Hat-Trick at Auckland Fringe

The Bitches’ Box wooed Auckland audiences and had a sold out season at the newest theatre in town!

Thankyou to all who came and supported us as we hit the “big smoke”. Seems we might be back before too long, with many calls for a return season.

Not bad for a couple of country mutts.

Here’s what reviewer Matt Baker had to say about our show : Theatrescenes Review
