HaBYT Company
The core principle of the HaBYT company is whanaungatanga - the treasuring of connection, community and trust. Throughout the year, members of the HaBYT Company work closely together to develop their craft as actors and performance, with a key focus on voice, movement and character work. Company members work towards a staged theatre work which is performed later in the year. Commitment and communication is an essential value of the Company class which enables our group to thrive with confidence within their Performing Arts community.
Our whānau is important to us, and trips away are organised occasionally and when possible to help bonding and friendships flourish. Additionally, the Company tours nationally and internationally every second year.

"HaBYT gave me the empathy to understand; the love for humanity; the fire to challenge the status quo. My time at HaBYT helped to shape me into the person I am and discover the values I hold dearest.
To HaBYT and its wonderful tutors- thank you, a million times over, and over, and over again. I wouldn't be where I am without you."
