Invincible.

World premiere.

“When I hear others debating who will play fullback for the Kingdom of Heaven versus the rest, I turn to stone. It is not me a question of whether Nepia was the best fullback in history. It is a question of which of the others is fit to lace up his Cotton Oxford boots.” – Denzil Batchelor, English Rugby Journalist.

St Helens, Swansea, Wales 1982. The crowd roars as an elderly man dapper in a long coat, walks purposely out onto the field. All stand and cheer as he acknowledges them. Singing rises. He is George Nepia.

I, George Nepia celebrates the life of an East Coast boy who became one of New Zealand’s most revered rugby players. A farmer, a singer, a rebel, a husband, a father, an invincible.

I, George Nepia. The spirit of a different age.

A new play by Hone Kouka.

Presented by arrangement with Playmarket.

Part of the REAL New Zealand Festival.
