Overview

Sos & Sha Creative [Amelia Reid-Meredith and Shadon Meredith] are running our first ever crowdfunding campaign to take our show Waiting on the road!

We are beyond honoured to announce that Waiting will tour to Shadon’s home roots - the windy city of Wellington – with a season at BATS Theatre.

To make this happen, we need your support.

We are seeking to raise $25,000 to help us pay for sets, props, travel, technical equipment, venue and importantly, because we want to pay our collaborators a living wage (an unfortunate rarity in our industry).

Sos & Sha Creative believe that art is a gift but it’s not a given.

Without valuing artists’ work through paying them fairly, the industry is at constant risk of losing incredible and important talent. Especially in this time of Covid and lockdowns.

Please join us and help us reach the all-or-nothing Boosted target in 30 days, otherwise we don’t get a cent.

If you are able to donate to our campaign (any amount, large or small, will help!) then please click on DONATE now.

And please, share, share, share!

We need as many as 40,000 people to see our campaign for us to reach our goal! The more you can share with your networks, the better chance we have to get Waiting seen by more audiences.

Thank you for believing in us and thank you for reading this and thank you, thank you, thank you, for sharing and donating.

Ngā manaakitanga,

Sos & Sha Creative

85% at the 1/2 way mark!!

Wow, wow, wow!! We can't believe it!! We have hit 85% of our target and we're only half way through our campaign!! Thank you SO much to all of our donors and sharers for your support!!

While we remain at Level 3 in Auckland, the response to our campaign is humbling and fills us with hope for the future of 'Waiting' and our company, Sos & Sha Creative. Here's a bit more about us:

Sos & Sha Creative is an independent creative company that strives to be brave in telling important and diverse stories.

We offer a unique approach to storytelling through the lense of a Wellington born Sāmoan (Shadon - Sha) and a farm girl from Wakefield in the South Island (Amelia - Sos).

We make art that is:

Transparent

Honest

Brave

Playful

Challenging

Exciting

Universal

And as creatives, we hold ourselves to these same qualities.

We believe in paying our collaborators a living wage. So they can bring their full selves to the process when working with us. We don’t want our humans to be worrying about rent while they are sharing their talents with us. And YOU are making that possible!

Thank you SO MUCH, again, for believing in 'Waiting' and supporting our company through sharing and donating.
