And... that's a wrap!

Three Feet Under's season has come to an end. We're so thankful to the New Zealand Fringe Festival and Te Auaha for giving us the space and support to create this fun and chaotic show.

Our final shout out goes out to all of the people who have supported us throughout this process. Our friends, family, partners, flatmates and pets have chipped in to the production in a million different ways, and supported us the whole time. And of course, thank you to everyone who came out and say the show. We were so thankful to have such great audiences.

The team are all taking a well deserved rest, but I'm sure you'll see them on the stage again sometime soon. If you'd like to keep up with our work, you'll find Crystal and Ivana (and often Tom) over on Lonely Shakespeare Collective

Helen and Shaun can be found working with The Magnificent Weirdos or you can keep up with Helen's plays, books and other writing on Helen Vivienne Fletcher - Writer

Thank you all so much for joining us on this journey. Go enjoy the rest of Fringe!

Friendship is a big theme in this show, which is pretty pertinent when this is a show that was born out of friendship. This show wouldn't have come about without the exception acting talents of my partner in crime (on and off the stage) Ivana Palezevic. Thank you Ivana for lending your immeasurable skill to this show.

I'd also like to give a shout out to the team behind last night's audio description - Lauren Hayes and Sameena Zehra. We've had great feedback from the blind community on your awesome work!

Tonight really is the last chance to experience this show - grab your ticket now from the New Zealand Fringe Festival website before they're all gone!

Jo Marsh, Caleb Havill and Julia Fink who made and loaned the awesome set pieces that make up this incredible garden scene.

All the best friendships involve a little body burying right?

This is a show about a fictional friendship - Libby and Jax's - that got written because of a real friendship - Helen and Ivana's.

Maybe it's time to call up your best friend and invite them to a show.
