VOU is having a great time in New Zealand with sold-out shows, drawing full houses and rave reviews at the New Zealand Fringe Festival in Wellington.

The internationally acclaimed Fijian performing arts company packed out its final Fringe performance, thanking Wellington audiences for their overwhelming support.

Audience members praised the production for its energy, inclusiveness and powerful stage presence.

Among them was Deputy Speaker of Parliament and Assistant Minister for Foreign Affairs, Lenora Qereqeretabua, who described the performance as effervescent and filled with joy.
