Rep Talk: Off to a flying start 1 Feb, 2021 12:43 AM 2 minutes to read Joana Simmons is bringing her one woman show Spiritual Banana to Whanganui. Photo / Supplied Now that January is behind us we are looking forward to fulfilling plans for February. We did have auditions for the comedy Death and Taxe$ planned for January 31, but had to postpone them due to a family bereavement. Hopefully we'll get those auditions under way in early February, the play cast and rehearsals in progress soon. Death and Taxe$, written by Whanganui raised April Phillips, is a farce, very funny and will elicit chuckles from everyone. The River City Players staged this play at Collegiate in 2010 to appreciative audiences.
