Celebrate 20 Years of Outrageous Fortune – With Its Creators!

Before Cheryl ruled the family and Van stole our hearts, two brilliant minds brought the Wests to life:

Rachel Lang & James Griffin.

Join us for a one-night-only live conversation as the writer's share behind-the-scenes stories, iconic clips from the show, wild moments, and the writing magic that made Outrageous Fortune a cultural phenomenon.

Whether you're a diehard fan, a writer, or just love great Kiwi TV – this night’s for you.

Join us in the heart of West Auckland at the Kōmanawa Theatre, Te Puna Creative Hub, Henderson.
