Our member Agreement

This is our vow of awesomeness

We hold dear that - we are all different — and that difference is our superpower.
We hold dear that - each of us brings unique skills, stories and strengths, and that a thriving cast is built from many voices, not one.
We hold dear that - everyone belongs here. Every identity, every ability, every background, every expression. This is a place where your whole self is welcome on our stage.
We hold dear that - equity matters — that everyone deserves the same chance to shine, learn, grow and be celebrated.
We hold dear that - kindness, courage and creativity make us unstoppable.
We hold dear that - our community thrives because of the mahi we all put in — rangatahi and adult members alike — lifting, supporting and learning from one another.
We hold dear that - theatre is better — and life is better — when we honour the richness of our diverse community.
