Kōrero: Plays and playwrights

Roger Hall, 2006

Middle-age spread, a comedy by Roger Hall, one of New Zealand's best-known playwrights, was first performed in 1979. Twenty-seven years later the original cast performed Hall's update on the play, Spreading out. This clip from a 2006 documentary about Hall shows the audience reaction on opening night, a comment from cast member Ray Henwood, and Hall reflecting on his career.
