For the first time in seventeen years, celebrated kiwi theatre star Ellie Smith takes the stage in New Zealand with her solo show, Life on a Loop — fresh from an "utterly uplifting" sellout season in London.

Written by and starring Ellie herself, Life on a Loop is a tender, funny and deeply human look at life in a rest home, told through the eyes of a devoted carer with a big heart.

“Succeeds quite magically in being utterly uplifting, in a way that only theatre at its best is able to be.” — Alan Sekers, Writer.

“It was honest, moving and had me reflecting on where my own life is heading." — Sharon Stapleton, ITV News.

"Ellie Smith captures the best, the worst, and the funniest parts of this phase of life with charisma, humour and deep respect" - Josh Clark, London Philharmonic Orchestra.

Ellie Smith MNZM’s long-awaited return is a major moment for New Zealand theatre — don’t miss this triumphant homecoming by one of our most treasured performers.

Strictly limited season. Book early.
