Productions – Past and Present

Stones in His Pockets by Marie Jones

October 2025

Directed by Janis McArdle

Starring Simon Deighton and Avi Duckor Jones

The inaugural production from Waiheke On Stage was a huge success: 4 out of 7 shows sold out; total venue capacity sales 96%; standing ovations…and the most amazing feedback from our audiences.

“Absolute masterclass in acting”

“A must see for everyone who loves theatre”

“We laughed and then suddenly we were holding our breath.”

Funds raised by this production were donated to the Waiheke On Stage Foundation to support theatre on Waiheke.

Another sell-out success!

We did it again! Following our sold-out season at Artworks Theatre on Waiheke, Waiheke On Stage transferred Stones in His Pockets to Auckland for a limited season at Q Theatre on Queen Street. And audiences loved it.

And we couldn’t have done it without the spupport of our sponsors Island Direct and Mana Tahapehi from Bayleys Waikehe, and our private donors. Thank you.

All funds raised by this production have been donated to the Waiheke On Stage Foundation Supporting the Vibrant Theatre Scene on Waiheke

Coming Soon in 2026

Annual major production – October/November. We’ll post the details here as soon as we secure the rights.
