“Writers on Mondays” to Feature Arnette Arapai Theatre Piece

Niuean playwright Arnette Arapai’s new 10 minute theatre piece “Tangimama’s 21st” is a feature of Victoria University’s “Writers on Mondays” programme for 2009. “Writers on Mondays” is organised by the International Institute of Modern Letters to showcase writers who are active in and around Wellington, as well as guests from overseas. The month of September is dedicated to an exciting and varied line-up of writers for screen, page and stage. These writers of the future are currently enrolled in the prestigious Masters of Creative Writing (Scriptwriting stream). Arnette Arapai is the only Pasifika student currently enrolled in the course. Her piece shows at the Te Papa Museum Marae (Level 4 of the museum) in Wellington on Monday 28th September 2009, from 12.15pm to 1.15pm. Free entry.
