For the first time in seventeen years, celebrated kiwi theatre star Ellie Smith takes the stage in New Zealand with her solo show, Life on a Loop — fresh from an "utterly uplifting" sellout season in London.

Written by and starring Ellie herself, Life on a Loop is a tender, funny and deeply human look at life in a rest home, told through the eyes of a devoted carer with a big heart. Ellie brings this world to life with seven central characters and a chorus of vivid personalities, each painted with detail and care.

Ellie Smith MNZM’s long-awaited return is a major moment for New Zealand theatre — don’t miss this triumphant homecoming by one of our most treasured performers.
