1:25 Playwright makes hay from lecturers' throwaway lines

Auckland's Fringe Festival gets started next week and one of the many weird wacky shows on display is Amy Mansfield's I Didn't Invite You Here to Lecture Me.

Mansfield took seven years' worth of throwaway lines and asides from her lecturers at the University of Auckland, and transmogrified them into a 50-minute "degree", to be delivered to the audience.

She joins us to talk about the show, what people can expect, and why hoarding is SOMETIMES a good idea...

2:20 NZ Live - The Richter City Rebels

The Richter City Rebels are all about Mardi Gras and the musical melting pot of Louisiana. They're an ensemble band, fresh off a tour of the South Island. They've headlined the Wellington Jazz Festival, Tora Tora Tora, Taranaki Arts Festival, National Jazz Festival, CubaDupa, and Meridian Gardens Magic. Their first live album Rebels Take Havana was released in 2012, and a studio recording We Do It Like That, then a second live album, Live At Tora in 2016. They join Jesse Mulligan from RNZ's Wellington studio with horns, percussion and vocals, some James Brown charisma and the swagger of Big Daddy Kane and Professor Longhair.
