The Court Theatre, like so many businesses in Christchurch, has moved to a new location. It’s in the Eddington district; an area which is benefitting from the new development in Christchurch. With the reconstruction delays in the centre of the city this area is having a bit of a resurgence.

It’s not quite as central as previously, but it utilises some old industrial buildings and has lots of floor space and height.

We went to see a new play : ‘When the Rain Stops Falling’. It starts with a fish falling from the sky and scans a family’s dysfunctional relationships over several generations – past, present and future. A compelling drama.
