KAIPARA LIFESTYLER OCTOBER 29 - 2013
Maungaturoto 150 Years ORT produces ‘Scandalous’ play It is very fitting that Otamatea Repertory Theatre should celebrate the Maungaturoto 150th by producing an historic play — ‘The Scandalous Maungaturoto Hotel Licencing Affair’. And it is equally fitting that Peter Flower, who is the great-grandson of one of the key players in this story, Harold Flower, should write and direct this play. The ‘Scandalous’ play is an historical and factually true story of the building of the Maungaturoto Hotel, set in 1902, and the facts behind the granting of the liquor licence, reflecting the nature of the community and the country as a whole, at that time. That the hotel licence was imposed on the people of Maungaturoto, against the majority’s wishes, was indeed
scandalous at the time and made national headlines. Hours of research have been spent — reading through old documents and reports — to create this dramatised ‘documentarystyle’ work, for our enjoyment, and to pay tribute to the tenacity of the early settlers who helped make Maungaturoto such a fine community. Four performances only — October 31 at 7.30pm, Nov 1 at 8pm, Nov 2 at 2pm and Nov 3 at 2pm. Tickets are $20 each and are available at First National Real Estate in Maungaturoto and online at www. ort.org.nz.
