If you could paint a picture of contagious enthusiasm, it would be a portrait of Kircher. Goateed, shiny eyed. Kircher is a talker and a glass brimming over. That kind of attitude is a prerequisite for folks in his line of work. Like many in the business, he’s hit big highs (a role as Bifur the dwarf in
The Hobbit series) and some low lows (no work at all), but as he says, you’re only one audition away from another great role.

They ve spent the past four months rehearsing for Hawke s Bay annual Art Deco Festival, making its cancellation a bitter blow for The Encore Deco Dancers.
Organisers cancelled the festival, due to finish this Sunday, because of uncertainty over Covid alert levels.
The 50 dancers were booked to perform at 22 events. We started rehearsing in November, rehearsed all through the holidays during the days and weekends, choreographing the numbers, says Born to Move Dance Studio director Corinne Bowey.
