In sync with Auckland's 175th anniversary, Auckland Museum is dedicating its latest season of LATE evening events to explore the contemporary themes of our city, Tamaki Makaurau. With the first edition shedding light on music inspired and created in Auckland, number two will prove that there's more to every sweet melody, delving into the city's darker side through stories of sex, drugs, crime and politics.
Radio New Zealand broadcaster Noelle McCarthy will chair the panel discussion about Auckland's hidden world. Panelists include 21-year-old ex-stripper Sarikha Rosli who blogs as The Knocked Up Stripper; Michael Stevens, a sociologist, consultant and a student of gay culture in Auckland; AUT senior lecturer Ella Henry, who washed up on K'Road as a country girl, became addicted to drugs and moved in to James K Baxter's refuge in Grafton.
The event will conclude with a live performance from Okareka Dance Company with K'Rd Strip, a provocative and humorous performance centred around the colourful Auckland neighbourhood, while intertwining Maori mythology, haka, drag queens, music and dance.
