The country's leading circus theatre company, The Dust Palace, has two reasons to celebrate.
They're about to open and tour their new show Haus of Yolo and secondly, following a new partnership with the local council, The Dust Palace has now moved into a new venue in Ellerslie, Tamaki Makaurau.
The former theatre will be a dedicated hub for circus arts, cabaret and live performance; serving both artists and the surrounding community.
Eve Gordon spoke to Culture 101's Perlina Lau about the benefits of having the new space for artists and performers.
Haus of Yolo will open at 138 Main Highway, Ellerslie from the 15th to the 18th of May before heading to Kerikeri, Hastings and Canada.
