THE NAKED SAMOANS REUNITE FOR ONE SHOW ONLY!  

The Naked Samoans Go Home
Saturday 7 November, 8pm
ASB Theatre, Aotea Centre


Emirates, DPA, THE EDGE and The Naked Samoans present
The Oxfam Tsunami Appeal Show:
The Naked Samoans Go Home

Critically acclaimed theatre troupe, The Naked Samoans are coming out of retirement for a special one-off performance of their ‘Go Home’ show to raise money for those affected by the recent tsunami in Samoa.

Based on a true story, but mostly lies, Naked Samoans Go Home features the crazy array of characters and brilliant physical comedy that have become the trademarks of The Naked Samoans.

Travelling from a hot Samoan tourist resort to that other Pacific hotspot – their Aunties’s house in South Auckland – Naked Samoans Go Home finds Sione moving from Samoa to New Zealand to follow a promising rugby career, and desperate to buy his five brothers their ticket to "paradise".

The Naked Samoans Go Home is proudly presented by THE EDGE who is providing the venue, all the lighting and sound, and their staff are giving their time freely so that all the funds raised will all go to the appeal.

All proceeds from the ticket sales will go directly to the Oxfam Tsunami Appeal.

The Naked Samoans are:
David Fane (bro’Town, Outrageous Fortune, Diplomatic Immunity)
Robbie Magasiva (Shortland Street, Sione’s Wedding, The Tattooist)
Oscar Kightley (bro’Town, Sione’s Wedding, Arts laureate; NZOM)
Mario Gaoa (bro’Town, Diplomatic Immunity, Sione’s Wedding)
Shimpal Lelisi (bro’Town, Sione’s Wedding, Tagata Pasifika)
and Jerome Leota
