O le Pepelo, le Gaoi, ma le Pala’ai | The Liar, the Thief, and the Coward

  • Theatre

Auckland Theatre Company

A darkly comic exploration of the fa’a sāmoa, where family, leadership and legacy converge in spectacular chaos.

In Sāmoa’s not-so-distant past, Pili Sā Tauilevā is a proud Ali’i (chief) in the village of Moa. He has devoted his life to the sacred fa’a sāmoa tradition of service. When he suddenly falls gravely ill and refuses to name a successor, his daughter and son become rivals for the title.

Special matinee performance

The school matinee performance is suitable for secondary school student (Years 11-13) and tertiary students. This performance will be held on Thursday 14 March (11am), and Tuesday 19 March (11am) with a post-show Q&A at 12:15pm.
