We're kicking off our big birthday celebrations with two fabulous productions in one action-packed week.
As a birthday present to us both shows are kindly donating 35% of their box office income to BATS, so we can continue our mahi. Tiwhas x BATS and Milly Monka's Milk Factory are showing back to back, so why not make a night of it and see both!
Embark on a cinematic journey in this high-production value, improvised horror-comedy, evoking the eerie charm of mid-century horror films. Experience the perfect blend of spine-tingling atmosphere and genuine laughs in a production like no other.
Clutch your golden ticket tight as Milly Monka invites you into her Milk Factory in this latest installment of Wellington’s wettest improv show.

Two directors will need the audience to suggest games and supply ask fors to put these more or less talented improvisors to the test. Will they break under pressure, or will they shine? We need people who are not afraid to judge.
The Hearts stand valiant in one corner. The Bones hunger for glory in the other. Two teams vie for your applause in this completely improvised competition!

From a gorgeous three level repurposed historic building we nurture creative talent and showcase exciting new NZ performance. Our buzzing year-round programme is an alternative mash-up of theatre, dance, improv, stand-up, and experimental work.
We partner in the development of exciting and bold performance. Through the meeting of digital and live art, bolstering BATS as a hub of creativity and showcasing diverse festival activity we support career sustainability and wellbeing for all.
We aim to make visiting BATS as easy as possible for everyone. If you need support with access, audio, visual needs, or with reserving an easy access seat in the theatre we encourage you to contact us prior to your visit and discuss your individual needs with our friendly Box Office team.
Putting on a show at BATS is a pretty sweet deal. We spend more supporting our shows than we make back with our low venue fees. That’s alright by us though, we exist to support emerging artists and showcase new NZ performance!
