Definitely worth a visit - very unique to see but visit it on the way to somewhere else eg before or after a trip on the forgotten world highway

I'm a Shakespeare nerd but anyone would enjoy the performance by the near Lifesize figurines with local nz voices

We were too early to hear the chimes which play 4 times a day but I remember that the voices of the Romeo and Juliet scene were updated last year - a friend of a friend's grand-daughter was chosen to read one of the times characters. The public toilets are in the courtyard nearby and it was nice to see shiny clean taps and glossy metal mirror but there was no toilet paper in the cubicle I chose. The doors have been painted to resemble wooden castle doors with iron hinges. It was pleasing to note all cars stopped for pedestrians on the crossing beside the tower - the town is friendly to tourists.

Jan2021: That was fun. Actually stopped here to see C Malone, but an add on bonus was the 5min interlude with Romeo & Juliet. What made it more fun was the locals coming past tooting and yahooing. The traffic is a slight distracted, but it is what it is.

I love the connection this town has made to Stratford-on-Avon. On some cast pavement gratings they call the town "Stratford on Patea" Great. The glockenspiel's short "presentation" is a bit brief, but does include some classic Shakespearean quotes from Romeo and Juliet. What a great feature to have in this small town. The glockespiel performs at 10 am, 1 pm, 3 pm and 7 pm every day, with little windows opening to show the Shakespearean characters.

Very unique - tells short Shakespeare stories about 4 or 5 times a day. Stop for a coffee if your driving through and watch it from the park across the road.

Stratford's Glockenspiel (playing clock), the first of its kind in New Zealand. The Glockenspiel performs four times daily (10am, 1pm, 3pm and 7pm). The Romeo and Juliet figurines perform with spoken dialogues accompanied with music ? from Shakespeare's famous love story. A total of six Romeo and Juliet figurines are involved in the performance here.
