Farmstrong, in association with ANZCO, proudly
presents Sons of a
Bitch and Mel Parsons: North Island Woolshed Tour 2016,
from October 19to November 13.
It follows their smash-hit sell-out tour The
Bitches' Box and Mel Parsons of the South Island earlier
this year and promises to be an unmissable evening of music, theatre and
comedy, complete with BBQ and bar - and it’s coming soon to a woolshed near
you! See below for tour dates.
Sons of a Bitch: From the makers of The
Bitches' Box comes a hilarious new show featuring a swag of delightful (and
disgusting) dogs. Country bumpkin Amelia
Dunbar and city slicker Emma
Newborn once again take to the stage, in an attempt to bridge
the urban/rural divide the only way they know how - by playing dogs. Join
them as they present their signature, fast paced, multi-character, new show Sons of a Bitch.
The sidesplitting sequel to the 5-star gem ‘The Bitches’ Box’ - a hit with
audiences from Edendale to Edinburgh, from wool sheds to glittering festivals
worldwide.

Mel
Parsons: After a huge year in 2015,
this award-winning folk/country artist brings us a new solo show following on
from her critically acclaimed new album DRYLANDS. Winner of the 2016 NZ Country
Song of the Year, Mel
Parsons was also a 2015 finalist for the prestigious APRA
Silver Scroll Award, and is a cast member of Fly My Pretties. With a razor sharp wit
and deft hand on the guitar, one of NZ’s favourite globe trotting
singer-songwriters presents a swag of new songs (plus old favourites) to fall
in love with.

The Tour
Travelling by trusty horse truck (and carting a bar, seating, stage curtain, props, full production equipment and crew along for the ride) the talented trio will capture audiences once reserved for the likes of the Topp Twins, Fred Dagg, and Murray Ball, transforming working wool sheds throughout heartland New Zealand into real-life show spaces for an unforgettable night in the country. The tour gratefully acknowledges the support of our sponsorship partners: Farmstrong,ANZCO, Allan Scott Wines and eventfinda.co.nz
Community Get Together
Each show will be preceded by a fundraiser BBQ run by the local school or community group - come hungry and support your local kids! A cash bar serving beer and Allan Scott wines will also be open throughout the evening.
