Tofiga Fepulea’i is one of Aotearoa/NZ’s most successful comedy acts. Originally half of iconic comedy duo, The Laughing Samoans, Tofiga has proven to be a comedy force in his own right since the pair parted ways in 2019. Sharing his gifts for music, acting and sketch comedy over his twenty year-plus career saw the NZ-Samoan comedian's 2021 NZ Comedy Festival debut smash attendance records, with Tofiga becoming the highest-selling comic at the 2021 festival, and one of the highest-grossing local comics in the festival’s history.
As he continues to entertain audiences both on stage to packed houses around the world and on social media to his half a million followers, Australian audiences get to enjoy Tofiga’s solo standup comedy genius for themselves for the first time this December!
With inspirations drawn from his old-school upbringing in Samoa, his experiences as a Pacific Islander in New Zealand, and his transition into fatherhood with three young teenage sons, Tofiga leaves the audience in stitches as he shares his whirlwind ride of a life.
While Tofiga brings a whole new look and feel into Pacific humour, he has been delighted to discover that his comedy crosses cultural divides, with the characters he describes being relatable to all ages and ethnicities, saying,
"What I didn't realise is that many other ethnicities, like when we came to Australia, there were Lebanese and Italians, and the further up in Australia like Queensland you get Torres Strait Islanders and Aboriginal people coming to watch, and they said they had very similar aunties."
A hilarious show the whole family can enjoy, don’t miss Tofiga Fepulea’i live on stage this silly season!
