Update from Wainuiomata Little Theatre

Hi everyone

Earlier this year, we lost our performance, rehearsal, and storage space at the old Wainuiomata College site. The building’s owners identified safety and other issues with the building and informed us with very little time to relocate. This was a shock to us, and many others occupying the site. We have spent the last few months sorting, moving out, and securing what storage we could. For now, we’re taking a brief break while we explore new venues and consider our future options.

Thank you for your ongoing support and patience. We can’t wait to find our next home and get back on stage with everyone.

If you know of any halls, community centres, warehouses, etc. in Wainuiomata that might suit our needs, please let us know. Any leads or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Stay tuned for updates.

WLT 2024 show “Evita”

The Wainuiomata Little Theatre is producing Evita in 2024. Evita is a musical created by Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber that tells the story of Eva Peron, who went from rags to riches and became the first lady of Argentina.

This wonderful story has many themes that still resonate today. Eva Peron was a polarizing figure, loved by some and hated by others, depending on who you were. She was adored by the poor but despised by the rich upper class. She was the driving force behind her husband’s rise to the presidency, demonstrating the age-old adage that behind every great man is a stronger woman.

The show features many great songs, including “Don’t Cry for Me Argentina,” “Oh What a Circus,” and “Another Suitcase in Another Hall.”
