      The Urban Growth Agenda is current government policy, but how should a city grow? Replace houses with high rise blocks, let the city sprawl? Different experts every night will argue how cities work – but for whom and for what? – and propose ways to make them work better. You must form a council and, together, decide our future. 

      Devised by elected local board member Alex Bonham and cast Ellie Lim, Hannah Rice, Simon Gilchrist and Talia Parker this show turns politics on its head.

      Are you ready to play?

      Guest experts include: Grant Hewison of the Low Carbon Network; Tom Irvine of Ngati Whatua Orakei; Emma McInnes of Women in Urbanism; and Greer O’Donnell of the Urban Advisory.

      Presented as part of Auckland Fringe 2021.
