A Frigate Bird Sings

By Oscar Kightley, David Fane and Nathaniel Lees

"Bursts with local reality, talent and theatrical skill" - Theatreview

Following the sudden death of her beloved mother, fa'afafine Vili is now the lady of the house. But looking after her rugby mad brother Sione and their devastated father takes its toll on lonely Vili. On K-Road she finds friends, fun and even the possibility of love. But when Vili brings her new friends home for the first time the family she cherishes spirals out of control.

Funny, moving and a celebration of difference, A FRIGATE BIRD SINGS is a timely call for tolerance for all cultures.
