I, George Nepia
Written by: Hone Kouka
Directed by: Jason Te Kare
Circa Two
08 December − 17 December
Invincible.
Return season.
“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.
After a sell-out season at Circa in September, I, George Nepia returns to Circa Two during December.
I, George Nepia. The spirit of a different age.
Running time approx 75 minutes (no interval).
Presented by arrangement with Playmarket.
