Red, White and Brass - The Play
Red, White and Brass Comes to Auckland Theatre Company
It’s 2011 in Wellington and the seventh Rugby World Cup is just around the corner. Reprising his film role, John-Paul Foliaki stars as Maka, a Tongan superfan, who will do whatever it takes to score tickets for the most important game of their lives – the Tonga versus France Rugby World Cup game.
Inspired by an amazing ’straight-up’ true story and with bucketloads of Tongan māfana (warmth), Red, White and Brass is a story of friendship, family and fearlessly standing up for what you believe in.
Co-produced by Piki Films and Miss Conception Films. A stage adaptation commissioned by Auckland Theatre Company of the film Red, White and Brass. Film screenplay by Halaifonua Finau and Damon Fepulea’i, and directed by Damon Fepulea’i.
