Cozy caberet-style venue wins over artists with intimate vibe

After raising its curtain for the first time a decade ago, the 4th Wall Theatre in New Plymouth has gone from touting for business to hosting luminaries of the stage and screen, and an array of international touring musicians. Michael Hurst - he of Hercules fame - has trodden the boards at the converted church and this month '80s hit-maker with the Commotions - Lloyd Cole - brought his solo show to the venue for a second time. Taranaki Whanganui reporter Robin Martin went along to see what makes it so special.
