Waiting is an evocative coming-of-age story that celebrates beat poetry. Written and performed by Shadon Meredith (Shortland Street, King Lear), it is a love letter written to his son, taking the audience through a journey of his life and breaking down the human condition of waiting.
Growing up as a Sāmoan New Zealander, the insights are both personal and reflective of cultural challenges faced by those who are navigating identity as a minority race in Aotearoa New Zealand. Waiting is an honest and raw look at how life can take us on twists and turns and will leave you musing your own life story - sparking reflection on moments lost, relationships built, and decisions made.
“A spellbinding hour of poetic, physical, metaphysical, existential and practical performative excellence.” - Theatreview
“Not only is this show an ode to his son but an ode to diasporic Samoans, a message of liberation and authenticity.” - Art Murmurs
