4. Keeping Up With NZ Reviews

About Faith-Ashleigh Wong

I am a mostly retired freelance arts reviewer currently living in Auckland, New Zealand. I love experiencing live entertainment and performing arts in all its forms and enjoy writing about the experience after.

I started writing on my flagship website Whimsical Banana in 2011 while also reviewing for other publications like Keeping Up With NZ as well as penning TV reviews for FOUR/TV3.

Between 2013 and 2015 I was based in the UK/Ireland where I joined Broadway Baby as a comedy and theatre reviewer. I feel extremely privileged to have gotten the opportunity to cover the Edinburgh Fringe in 2013 and 2014, where I reviewed a total of sixty-one shows.

I returned to New Zealand in late 2015. Though I am very far from the UK, when needed, I still assist the Broadway Baby team from afar during Edinburgh Fringe as a comedy and theatre sub-editor.

My day-to-day is kept extremely busy from working full-time at Auckland Live, New Zealand’s largest performing arts organization as well as running Purrs & Beans, New Zealand’s longest-running cat café, with the hubby.

When I am not juggling all these things, I enjoy binge-watching TV, cooking/baking, a glass of wine with good company, and doting on all my fur babies.

Sharing is caring!
