Since 1976, Circa Theatre has built a reputation as one of New Zealand's liveliest and most innovative theatres. Champions of quality playwriting and performance for 35 years, home and host to New Zealand's most influential theatre-makers, Circa continues to lead New Zealand theatre with a musical, magical, masterful season of work.

Music threads throughout the 2012 Season with the dance infused Esencia del Flamenco and Meeting Karpovsky, the blooming micro-musical Floral Notes with Jane Keller and Geraldine Brophy, the new Roger Hall play about folk dancing - A Shortcut to Happiness, and the always entertaining BeatGirls with Spector.

Magic is also ever-present, with the beginning and end-of-year pantomimes, Aladdin and Cinderella, the improv 'magic' that happens in all of The Improvisors shows, the magic that transports Anton Chekhov to present day London in Chekhov in Hell, and of course, as it states in the title, The Year of Magical Thinking is a kind of magic all of its own.

Circa will present a number of thought-provoking, masterful works in 2012, from the Miller classic All My Sons and the Pulitzer Prize winning Clybourne Park, to the new Kiwi masterpieces Sunset Road and the Ken Duncum adaptation of West End Girls.

2012 is a year of exceptional programming that will inform, challenge, inspire and entertain. For more information on each of Circa's 2012 productions, please visit http://www.circa.co.nz/.

Circa Theatre's purpose-built theatre is located on Wellington's waterfront – right next door to Te Papa. It not only has the two performance spaces, but also has an on-site restaurant – opening under new management in 2012! Encore at Circa is the new dynamic partnership in first class contemporary cuisine and service excellence to enhance your theatre-going experience in a waterfront location.

There are $25 tickets for under 25s, a bargain 'Friend of Circa' membership that gives members $33 tickets for the first 11 days of each show, plus a range of other ticket prices and pre-show dinner options.
