Way Out!

Go-go dancers, drug addicts, drunks, and gamblers are just a few of the people depicted by the young people of Gisborne in "Jo Jonah". The folk drama log is based on the story of Jonah in the Bible and shows man's responsibilities to mankind and the world. The show runs for three nights in April (15, 16, 19) in St. Andrew's Church, Cobden Street, and commences at 8 p.m. Proceeds will go to the Save the Children Fund.
