First Draft – Presented by The Magnificent Weirdos

15 August 2025

Wellington

Join The Magnificent Weirdos for a weekend of creativity, conversation, and bold new ideas.

Writers and devisers with lived experience of disability, neurodivergence, d/Deafness or mental distress will present rehearsed readings of brand-new works in development. Each 20-minute piece will be followed by a 30-minute kōrero with the writer, hosted by the director.

This is your chance to help shape powerful stories as they grow—audience feedback is a vital part of the creative process.

View the full programme on the Magnificent Weirdos website.
