Nelson City Council

She’s harassed the pastor, wrapped the presents, sorted the tree. Now all she has to do is wait for the guests to arrive. Join Irene for her first Christmas in the unit, and make it one to remember, as she reflects on times gone by and regales us with a lifetime of golden memories – with some Christmas craft tips thrown in for good measure.

Silent Night is a flawless insight into a senior living life solo. Yvette Parsons as Irene McMunn is representative of the generation of New Zealand women who came of age between the wars.

‘Yvette Parsons delivers a tour-de-force performance as poignant as it is parodic...within seconds of her entrance Parsons has the crowd howling with laughter...Silent Night is a phenomenal play.’ Nik Smyth, Theatreview
