Eteuati Ete

Inspired by the true stories of New Zealand's street gangs across 30 years, we follow Danny at three defining moments in his life as he grows from a boy into the violent enforcer of a gang.

The Brown Boys spend their weekends drinking, partying and chasing girls. Peter the Player, Kiligi the Bad Influence, Magele the Tough Guy, Luka the Drunken Master, Siaki the Weird Guy and Mickey the Baby - they are family by blood and by choice. When one of the boys expresses a desire to settle down, it causes reactions among the group that could rupture their bonds of friendship and family forever.

NZ’s most successful and funniest comedy duo are back with the DVD of their hit show Prettyfull Woman. All of the Laughing Samoans characters, such as Sam and Tony, Paul and Victor and Jonathan and Bryan, are back. Including the flamboyant and outspoken Aunty Tala who, in this show, enters a beauty contest! Hilarious ‘clean’ comedy for all nationalities and ages to enjoy.

Fobulous opens with Paul teaching Victor their school's Polynesian group dance routine and ends with Suavai (as Elvis) singing about his fame and fortune - or lack of it. In between Sam and Tony return to talk about life from an fresh Samoan perspective, a father tells his son off for being influenced by his Palagi/European friends, Aunty Tala is an immigration officer, Island Time does a Samoan version of Goldilocks and the three bears, a Samoan guy and his Palagi fiance plan their wedding and we introduce two new characters - night club bouncers.

Comedy sensations, The Laughing Samoans (aka Eteuati Ete and Tofiga Fepulea'i) have come a long way since their debut gig at the Fringe Festival in Wellington in 2003. In addition to commanding such major NZ venues as The Aotea Centre and The Michael Fowler Centre, The Laughing Samoans now fill large concert halls in the USA, Hawai'i, Australia and (obviously) throughout the Pacific region. Crack Me Off is the fifth DVD the Laughing Samoans has released.

Comedy Routine by the Laughing Samoans. Filmed at the Wellington Opera House on 27 November 2004.
