HLT Presents
Many Happy Returns
Welcome
Howick Little Theatre is a non-profit Auckland theatre dedicated to bringing creative and inspiring stories to life on stage since 1954. Each year, five plays are staged, many of them premieres, to thousands of people who come from all over Auckland as well as parts of the upper North Island. The theatre, one of Auckland's foremost community theatres and a leading New Zealand company, also offers acting classes for students aged six years to adults. And there are often development workshops with leading professionals from the theatre community.
