About the Business
Welcome to Pitt St Theatre, located at 78 Pitt Street in Auckland, New Zealand. As an establishment and point of interest, we are proud to bring you a unique solo theatre piece called "Ghost Trees." This captivating production is written and performed by the talented Gary Stalker and directed by Paul Gittins.
"Ghost Trees" is a thought-provoking story that explores the intersection of science, imagination, and the profound love for things lost. It follows one man's journey as he grapples with the loss of his partner to cancer and embarks on a quest for answers. Along the way, he discovers the devastating effects of kauri dieback on the trees surrounding his home, which symbolize deeper issues such as climate change, species extinction, isolation, and loss of identity.
Playwright Gary Stalker delves into the profound connectedness between all living beings, creating a narrative that blurs the lines between reality and magic. Unable to move forward, he finds himself in a poetic realm where matter meets spirit, engaging in conversations with the departed and the majestic kauri trees that envelop his dwelling. "Ghost Trees" offers a life-affirming and immersive experience, combining enchanting storytelling with a captivating soundscape by Jude Robertson.
Don't just take our word for it – critics have praised "Ghost Trees" for its intensely lyrical imagery, exquisite tenderness, and its ability to deliver a compelling and urgently relevant message. Theatre View describes it as extraordinary and satisfying, while Theatre Scenes hails it as mesmerizing and powerfully executed.

Reviews
"Yes I know the place but I was behind it at the top of Myers park behind St Kevin's arcade..nice place to break away from the hussle n justle of classic krd"
"We've been to several of the Plumb Company productions here. Seats are good, visibility is good."
"Had the absolute worst time trying the find the entrance to the theatre. Went to go watch Oedipus for Kids with my sisters. We arrived 5 minutes late and all doors were locked. We even had help from the nice people from the church next door who saw us struggling and we still couldn't find an open entrance. We continued to wait and ended up leaving after 15 mins. Missed the show. Needs better signage. Couldn't get a refund for my tickets. Altogether terrible experience."
"Privileged to have watched several performances by 5 of my Whai Ake tauira."
"A building full of character and the people are a delight. We just finished a musical there and it was such a breeze. A very cool wee venue hidden in the centre of town."
