ALERT LEVEL 2 UPDATES 

Sat 15 August – NEW DATES FOR DUNGEONING & DRAGONING: After last night’s announcement that we are remaining at Alert Level 2 we are sorry to say that the next two performances of Dungeoning and Dragoning (16 and 23 August) cannot go ahead as originally scheduled. This is due to the limited space in Circa Two for physical distancing. However, all tickets remain valid for NEW DATES of 6th and 13th September respectively! Box Office will be in touch with all patrons affected to confirm. We are really hoping that the Dungeon Master rolls the dice in our favour and we can continue to see the season through to its completion from here on out.

We’re thrilled to say that, at the moment, PSA: Election 2020 is on track to open on Saturday 22 August in Circa One with physical distancing in place. We have strict protocols and measures to keep our artists and our audiences safe. However, if you’ve bought tickets already and are concerned in any way please call the Box Office, your safety is our biggest concern.

All of us at Circa wish you the very best. Stay safe.

All regions in New Zealand, except for the Auckland region, moved to Alert Level 2 at 12 noon on Wednesday 12 August. This will remain in place until Wednesday 26 August.
