The Hurunui Day on a Wild River is being held to highlight the importance of wild rivers and the need to protect them from dams. The events are organised by eight conservation and recreation organisations that have united to speak up for our wild rivers and is one of 10 being held throughout New Zealand. · Try out kayaking with White Water New Zealand. · Learn to cast a fly with Fish and Game. · Watch endangered birdlife with Forest and Bird. · Watch the kayak slalom competition (11am until 2pm) · Learn how to check and clean for didymo. · DoC information officer on hand. · Sausage sizzle. · Hot and cold drinks provided. Where? The event is based alongside the Hurunui River at the Jollie Brook confluence. See the accompanying map and instructions on how to get there. Why a Wild Rivers Day? Wild and scenic rivers are a big part of New Zealand’s heritage yet throughout the country they are under threat for irrigation and hydro development. The Hurunui River is extremely popular for its white water rafting and kayaking, scenic beauty, rich wildlife and cultural history. Turning up to celebrate the river is a positive way to tell decision-makers and the media that we love our wild rivers and want them to stay that way. Bring… Picnic lunch, togs, wetsuit or polyprops if you plan to get wet, sturdy footwear, sunhat & sunscreen, binoculars if you want to bird-watch, warm clothing and a smile. For more information, contact Hugh Canard (White Water New Zealand) on 332 3414 or 021 406546 , Tony Hawker (Fish and Game) on 366 9191 or 021 221 8325, or Bruce Coleman (Forest and Bird) on 376 4979 or 021 376 807.

Learn the choreography of "All That Jazz" from the stage performance of Chicago, choreography Bob Fosse (USA). Taught by London West End performer - AJ O Neill Sunday 6th Dec. 2 - 6pm Dance Theatre of Ireland Studio, Dun Laoghaire The musical Chicago was first seen on Broadway with spectacular direction & choreography by Bob Fosse. Fosse's style of dance is unmistakeable - inverted arms & shoulders combine with slow deliberate extensions & contorted poses to create plateaus no other choreographer had attempted before and thousands have copied since. The story of Roxie Hart & Velma Kelly, femme fatales in 1920's Chicago, is now synonymous with slick, stylish theatre with a sense of humour and real bite. AJ O Neill joined the West End cast of Chicago in 2007 as dance swing and understudy. He has played every male role in the show bar one and has a unique insight into the different strengths and styles needed to perform different aspects of Fosse's choreography. This workshop will cover a few of the different styles of the show. It will teach the vocabulary of the steps from ALL THAT JAZZ (& time permitting...other routines from the show). As part of the workshop AJ will be imparting the pinciples & background of Fosse's technique and some of Fosse's famed group movement.
