The bitches are back...
Farmstrong in association with ANZCO proudly present:

'Sons of a Bitch' & Mel Parsons - a brand new double bill show that'll blow your ears back!

Following sell-out tours from the deep south to the shallow north of New Zealand since 2012, the team who brought you “The Bitches’ Box & Mel Parsons” are excited to announce they are heading back to the farm with a new show in 2016 - ‘Sons of a Bitch’ & Mel Parsons promises an unmissable evening of music, theatre and comedy, complete with BBQ and bar - coming soon to a wool shed near you!

Each event will start with a fundraising BBQ dinner run by the local school or community group - come hungry and support your local kids. A cash bar serving Allan Scott wines, and beer will also be open throughout the evening.

About the Show:

Mel Parsons - After a huge year in 2015, Silver Scroll finalist and ‘Fly My Pretties’ star Mel Parsons brings us a new solo show following on from her critically acclaimed & award-winning new album ‘Drylands’. 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.

'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 & 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 side-splitting sequel to the 5-star gem ‘The Bitches’ Box’ - a hit with audiences from Edendale to Edinburgh, from wool sheds to glittering festivals worldwide.

The promoters gratefully acknowledge the support of our sponsors:
Farmstrong, ANZCO, Allan Scott Family Winemakers and Eventfinda.co.nz.
