Understanding women is thought to be an impossible task but three men give it a go in the Rotorua Little Theatre's latest production.
Opening tomorrow, Understanding Women features three blokes sitting in a shed contemplating ladies and life, trying to discover the eternal mystery of the female mind.
Writtenby New Zealand playwright Devon Williamson, the production is a comedy for both sexes and is directed by Rotorua's Jenny Hotch with locals Paul van Miert, Carlton Guiton, Tim Eardly and Alison Young playing the characters of Mike, Dave, Julian and Dianne.
Hotch said the show would be showcasing local talent and would have lots of great laughs.
"It's about three guys who are spending the weekend in their shed.
"They get a romance profile out of a women's magazine and adapt it to suit their own circumstances - one is married, one hasn't been in a relationship for a long time and the other is always in and out of relationships."
She said they had even had a corrugated iron shed built on the stage for the production which looked really good.
The season will run until November 16. Tickets can be purchased from the theatre box office, Monday to Saturday, from 11am to 2pm and from 7pm on show nights.
