Showdown is the Auckland secondary school production competition and aims to promote excellence among our akonga - our up and coming performers and theatre technicians.
With 10 plays and 15 musicals entered, this year's nominees come from 20 secondary schools across Auckland. Nominees have been selected by our Showdown judges and tonight the winners in 29 categories are announced at the Bruce Mason Centre.
It looks like it's time for a Showdown!
Proudly part of the Auckland Council whānau
Local tip
He tīwhiri mō te rohe
Leave plenty of spare time in case there’s traffic on the motorway or around the Takapuna village. Even better – get dinner or a pre-show drink nearby so you can soak up the bustling beachfront vibe.
Getting there
