Somewhere between middle earth and Wellywood, find yourself enthralled by mystery and intrigue as writer, director and actress Loren Mason takes us on a theatrical journey to uncover just exactly who the great Taihape gumboot thief really is.

Factually, Taihape is considered the gumboot capital of the world; fictionally, Mason captivates us with a classic whodunnit? delicately exposing the audience to a provincial town in chaos with its international identity under siege.

A fiercely talented performance chameleon with a penchant for dark-ish, slapstick humour and a clever use of space, time and props, audiences in her native Palmerston North have raved about this one-woman show, where Mason and her quintessential Kiwiana effortlessly entertains.
