SUMMARY:100 Years of Flight
DESCRIPTION:An important new transport connection from the West Coast to Canterbury was made on 4th June 1924 when Captain Maurice Buckley and mechanic Bill Harrington\, flew Avro 504K (H5241) Blazing Arrow from Greymouth to Christchurch\, pioneering the very first aerial crossing of the Southern Alps. The aircraft had flown the first flights on the West Coast as a key feature of the British and Intercolonial Exhibition\, a small world’s fair\, held at Hokitika between 15 December 1923 and 2 February 1924. Buckley and Harrington flew off West Coast beaches for several months doing joy-riding with more than 500 passengers and as far north as Westport and Karamea. A highlight flight was on 22 January 1924 when the Blazing Arrow flew the first flight to South Westland and return. When the joy-riding was all over\, Captain Buckley (a WWI trained pilot)\, with Harrington\, after a delay due to the weather\, left Greymouth at 2.20pm on 4 June 1924 and flew to the Sockburn Airfield at Christchurch in a flight time of about one hour and 30 minutes. A height of about 8\,000ft was reached by the Avro. The first-trans-alpine flight was a start to the revolution of air travel to come – and which continues as an essential aspect of domestic air travel to and from the West Coast to this very day. \nOn Tuesday 4th June 2024 – the 100th anniversary of the first trans-alpine flight -passengers on all Air New Zealand scheduled flights will be informed of the milestone day\, along with some festivities at the Hokitika Airport Terminal. Local aero clubs are planning special flights (weather dependent)\, and newspaper feature articles on both sides of the alps will pay tribute to the aviation pioneers and celebrate the trans-alpine air route – surely one of the most scenic in the world.

SUMMARY:Bruce Mason’s The End of the Golden Weather
DESCRIPTION:Kiwi theatre classic for The Old LodgeContinuing its agenda of mounting a classic play in the Blackball Bathhouse each summer\, Kiwi/Possum Productions presented a NZ classic at the end of January: Bruce Mason’s The End of the Golden Weather and have found a weekend among other commitments to bring it to The Old Lodge Theatre in Hokitika.The End of the Golden Weather was first performed in 1960 and subsequently Mason performed it in almost every village\, town and city in New Zealand\, clocking up over 500 performances\, including taking it to The Edinburgh Festival. He was determined to make a living as an actor\, something previously unheard of in New Zealand.Set in the beachside suburb of Takapuna (called Te Parenga in the play)\, it is a coming of age story of how an imaginative child loses his innocence as he encounters the adult world and a friendship with a schizophrenic local with whom he has empathy turns sour. It is the 1930s and everyone will recognise the summer beach atmosphere and the boozy relatives\, the charades\, the attempted concert\, visits to church and boyish quarrels. In 1991 the story was made into a popular NZ movie.‘In this production\,’ states director Paul Maunder\, ‘three local actors\, Frank Wells\, Francis Darwin and myself\, share the story telling. With these elders dressed in boyish shorts\, the production takes on a surreal quality and could almost be set in a rest home. Pam McKelvey has designed the set\, transforming the theatre into a beach\, Elisa Wells is once again costumer and Karen Grant provides the music.End of the Golden Weather will play at The Old Lodge at 7.30pm\, Saturday June 15th. Admission will be $20\, $15 for school students. The production was supported by Creative Communities and bookings can be made by texting your name and number of seats required to 0211063669
