When it comes to healthy eating and living, Taranaki isn’t behind in behind in the times, it’s a vibrant example of just what it means to be well.

That being said, rarely do we get the same caliber of health events that many of the larger cities in NZ and the world hold regularly.

That is, until Well Fed.

**********

On October 26, 2019, Well Fed is coming to the TSB Showplace. This health event is unlike any other that has come before it. Well Fed is bringing you the best minds in Health and Nutrition from New Zealand and Australia. Clinical nutritionists, doctors, authors, master chefs, self-made millionaires, political advocates and experts in their field.

Not only that but the healthiest and best tasting Taranaki and NZ-made foods will also be on show allowing people to sample, purchase and devour all those delicious little nutrients.

In 2017 we brought you the Total Health Explosion, with 1000 participants and many more who were waiting at the door to get into this sold out event. Well Fed promises another incredible experience.

From the creative brilliance of Arts Laureate Ross McCormack comes a darkly cinematic new work performed by renowned national dance company, Footnote New Zealand Dance. The Clearing is a dance-theatre work inspired by the mysterious energy that exists within forests, hollows and hills, and the supernatural stories we tell ourselves about these spaces. Set against a compelling score by acclaimed sound designer Jason Wright, the occupants of The Clearing are caught, sheltered and threatened within an otherworldly terrain. Here, in this precarious environment, they wrestle with the elements and with each other.

Like a beautifully shot, indie thriller film, The Clearing overflows with vivid imagery and mesmerising performances.

“An absorbing piece of dance-theatre.” Dr Ian Lochhead, The Press

“Every dancer is beautifully controlled, totally committed, and clearly connected to the piece and to each other.” Kerri Fitzgerald, DANZ

“Footnote…can place this work on the world stage.” Kerri Fitzgerald, DANZ

Parental guidance is recommended for children under 13 years of age.

The Imperial Russian Ballet Company return to Australia with Swan Lake…the most loved classical ballet of them all.
This masterpiece ballet is presented in two acts and follows the original storyline. Subtle revisions and variations have been introduced by Gediminas Taranda, Artistic Director of the Imperial Russian Ballet Company.
Swan Lake crosses the world of magic and mystical creatures with that of the real world. It is a story where the virtues of love and forgiveness in the end conquer evil and betrayal.
The Imperial Russian Ballet Company was formed in 1994, headed by the Bolshoi Theatre soloist Gediminas Taranda. The Imperial Russian Ballet Company comprises 40 dancers from the major ballet schools of Russia.
