Acting Out NZ is Wainuiomata’s youth theatre where volunteers work with youth aged nine years and over on a weekly basis. At these weekly sessions, children are taught stagecraft and vocal skills through fun games and activities.

Annually, the children are given the opportunity to audition for and perform a junior version of a well-known musical to the local community. In 2020, they performed Disney’s Aladdin Jr. The Thankyou Charitable Trust  helped make this possible by contributing towards the costs of securing the show’s licensing fee.”
