AUCKLAND

Bill and the boys have been talking about it for years and it's finally here. It's the night before their big trip overseas. Everything is all set to go as long as Joops doesn't forget anything. I mean he's done it before, but surely this time he'll be fine.

So when Joops brings Simon’s ex-girlfriend along, things are a bit tense and Bill finds himself struggling to keep the peace.
Lotto, passports, betrayal and a preflight bender – suddenly it’s all coming apart at the seams. Can they pull it together or is the whole trip doomed for total disaster?

What happens when old friends realise the only thing they share is history?

With this new play by Sam Berkley, Catalyst Theatre Company examines the greatest of all Kiwi traditions. The Big O.E.
