“A Theatre Experience Not to be Missed” – The Dominion Post

Like many families arriving in New Zealand for a better life, the one in The White Guitar is no different to any other.  They dreamed of a new beginning when leaving Samoa, but as so often happened, those dreams turned into a nightmare which was the case with the Luafutu family. Young Fa’amoana (John) arrived in Auckland with his parents into an alien culture and struggled to establish himself for much of his life.  Then moving to Christchurch he married and had two boys Mathias and Malo, who became the pop icon Scribe.
