Spiritual Banana
Friday, February 19

The first thing evident at Repertory Theatre on Friday, February 19, was . not your usual Repertory audience.
There were lots of younger people, some wearing interesting, colourful clothing, reminiscent of hippydom and the psychedelic era.
There were older folks too, most there because they know or have known Joana Simmons when she was here in Whanganui at school, or dancing on stage under the direction of Sharyn Underwood, perhaps, but they were not at Repertory to see Joana Simmons: they were there to see Banana Jolie in a show called Spiritual Banana.
