Stretch Goal Message

08 Apr 2025

Thank you so much for your kindness to help us make a successful campaign!

This stretch goal is our original amount we aimed to fundraise - these additional funds will help us with the following:

Sourcing set materials and cover construction costs.
Sourcing props and cover any construction costs.
Additional funding for costume construction and/or sourcing.

These aspects of the production help make the show look and feel better, leading to a more cohesive production look for yourself, the audience.

So, keen to help us out? Spread the word and let's see how close we can get to the original target!

Each donation made will be matched, dollar for dollar, up to their matching amount.

Overview

Conflict in the afterlife spills onto Earth as Nafanua, the Samoan goddess of War and Jesus, son of God uproot the lives of an already fractured family in Aotearoa, New Zealand. As ideologies collide and faith gets tested, will the lives of everyone involved ever be the same again?

Written by emerging multidisciplinary artist Kaisa Fa’atui, ON GOD is a show that sets to investigate pre and post colonial religion though the lens of a Samoan-New Zealander, and how faith plays out in today’s society. With rave reviews and a sold out development season last year, ON GOD is set to make its premiere at Te Auaha in Wellington, as part of an indigenous arts festival in late May 2025.

We Made It!

We're absolutely stoked to have made it across the finish line!

Thank you all very much for your generosity and support for making On God the best show it could possibly be - with your help, this journey of making great art has become much easier to achieve.

We've added a stretch goal that totals our original amount we aimed to fundraise - so with the remaining time before our campaign closes, please do us a solid and continue to share this campaign around. Spreading the word to your friends and family makes your impact even stronger, so let them know about the magic we're trying to achieve and join in!

Over on our end, the puzzle pieces are coming together strong - the full cast and crew have just about gathered, and we can't wait to finally reveal the flurry of amazing news we have to share soon!

Fa'afetai lava for your support, it means the world to myself and the team.

Alofa tele,

Kaisa and the 'On God' aiga 🥰
