Wild Bees
The funny, vicious truth about New Zealand in the 1990s.
Overview
Wild Bees exposes the funny, vicious truth about New Zealand in the 1990s. The play is set in a corporate conference room in Wellington. As $23 billion of New Zealand assets are flogged to the highest bidder and labour laws are rewritten, a union team renegotiates their contract with the company after it’s sold offshore.
Polite tolerance between the parties turns to name-calling and petty-point scoring before finally descending into betrayal, threats and illegal acts. Tempers flare, allegiances are forged and broken and the consequences of economic theory are given a human, if not so pretty, face. It’s Animal Farm meets 12 Angry Men with a giant dose of The Daily Show.
Written by Phil Ormsby and directed by Stuart Devenie, Wild Bees stars, Donogh Rees, Kevin Keys, Alistair Browning, Wesley Dowdell, Emma Newborn, Damien Avery, Alexander Campbell, Jordan Blaikie and Alex Ellis.
