"...confident, engaging and hilarious performers."

Audience member

The Hobson Street Theatre Company, in association with the Auckland City Mission, brings you The Race: an unapologetic piece of theatre looking head on at how racism affects those experiencing homelessness in Aotearoa today.

The company has been together since 2010, presenting 7 shows in that time at venues including the Auckland City Mission Drop-in Centre and the Herald Theatre in the Aotea Centre. The shows are original, self-devised pieces that offer the unique voice of a sometimes marginalised section of society and allow an important discussion around homelessness in New Zealand to be had.

HSTC bring a raw energy to live performance rarely seen on stage and this piece will be no different. Don’t miss this eye opening new work from a company renowned for their humour, spirit and depth.
