22 solo pieces programmed in five groups, across six days, Solos Season 2024 is promised to be a wild ride of startling characters, innovative forms, outrageous comedy and sharp politics.
The Solos project has a long tradition at Toi Whakaari, allowing first-year Acting students the chance to experiment with performance and expand their creative voice, with total autonomy over body and storytelling.
From Oct 15-20 in our very own Basement Theatre, there are three chances to watch each of the five groups.

Each actor creates a 15 minute performance, and the artists are encouraged to take risks and create their own inquiries inside a frame of embodied research. Acting and Production students work alongside each other to create original works and test new performance ideas. It is a project that encourages experimentation and self driven learning.
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
