MARGI ARTHUR
In 1978, Margi made her first foray into the adult world of amateur theatre in the Roger Hall play Middle Age Spread (NP Repertory). Since then, Margi has appeared in no less than twenty local theatre productions, among these notably Rachel in My Cousin Rachel (1984); Anastasia in The Anastasia Files (1988); Stephanie in Duet For One (1990); M’Lyn in Steel Magnolias (1992); Laura in Time of My Life (1997); Ruth in Play Memory (1998); Annabel in Snake in the Grass (2007) – all New Plymouth Repertory; Jane in Benefactors (1989 Best Actress); Noises Off (1995) - New Plymouth Little Theatre; Fruma-Sarah in Fiddler on the Roof (1984); Baroness Elsa Schrader in The Sound of Music (1985) - New Plymouth Operatic Society. Her last stage role was as the Fairy Godmother in the December 2007 Taranaki Hospice Production of Cinderella.
Margi made her debut as a Director at New Plymouth Little Theatre in 2002 with the outstandingly successful “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest”. She followed this in 2003 with the widely acclaimed Cue production “The Rise and Fall of Little Voice” ; and then directed another memorable production, this time for New Plymouth Repertory – “Dancing at Lughnasa” in 2004. "Leading Ladies" is her first farce and was another feather in her cap!
