SUMMARY:Come From Away – The Smash-Hit Musical
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Tauranga Musical Theatre\nExperience the global phenomenon that has captured hearts around the world. \nCome From Away is based on the true story of the time when the isolated community of Gander\, Newfoundland\, played host to the world. What started as an average day in a small town turned into an international sleepover\, when 38 planes\, carrying thousands of people from around the globe\, were diverted to Gander’s airstrip on September 11\, 2001. Undaunted by culture clashes and language barriers\, the people of Gander cheered the stranded travelers with music\, an open bar and the recognition that we’re all part of a global family. \nSet to a vibrant Celtic-influenced score\, this award-winning musical takes audiences on an emotional\, exhilarating journey as an extraordinary true event unfolds through the eyes of ordinary people. What begins as a moment of international crisis becomes an inspiring tale of kindness\, humanity\, and the power of community. \nAfter its world premiere in 2015\, Come From Away made its Broadway debut in 2017\, earning critical acclaim and becoming one of Broadway’s most celebrated hits of the decade. It went on to play more than 1\,600 performances at the Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre and received a Tony Award\, six Olivier Awards\, and widespread international praise for its innovative storytelling and powerful message of unity. The show’s global presence resonates across all audiences as an uplifting reminder of humanity’s ability to come together\, no matter what the circumstances. \nJoin the thousands who have fallen in love with this extraordinary musical. Book your seats now and be part of the story that reminds us: even in the worst of times\, we see the best of humankind. \nOn Tuesday 28 April it’s Pay What You Can\, where you can choose your price to suit your budget.  \nFind out more

SUMMARY:Kokomo and Friends
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Baycourt Community & Arts Centre\nIn 1991 the Tauranga Jazz Society invited Derek Jacombs\, then playing guitar with country legend Ritchie Pickett\, to perform a set of blues at the National Jazz Festival\, in those days held at the Tauranga racecourse. \nTo bolster his first festival appearance Derek enlisted the help of harmonica player Grant Bullot. They played primarily 1930s blues and it was a huge success. So much so that\, with the addition of Grant’s bass-playing brother Roger\, they formed an acoustic blues trio and spent the 1990s tearing around the country playing over 100 shows in one year alone. \nBut that was long ago. Since then they have played in every corner of New Zealand\, from Sweetwaters to the America’s Cup; the Aotea Centre to the Blackball Hilton. \nAlong the way they have released fifteen albums and a live concert film\, and grown from a trad blues 3-piece to a multi-instrumental 5-piece carving out a specific “Kiwiana Blues” niche in New Zealand music. \nThis year Kokomo return to the National Jazz Festival for their 35th anniversary in a very special collaboration with members of the Tauranga Big Band and with surprise special guests throughout the evening. This will be Kokomo like you’ve never seen them before – let the fun begin! \nKokomo:\nDerek Jacombs – vocals\, acoustic guitar\nGrant Bullot – harmonica\, washboard\nNigel Masters – bass\nSantiago Rebagliati – electric guitar\nIan “Beano” Gilpin – drums \nFind out more
