Colonial Combat

2020 · 1 season

A quick, cheeky romp through mock-colonial small-town rivalries, with broad laughs and scrappy wrestling bouts that never take themselves seriously.

Overview: Colonial Combat takes a laugh at our unofficial NZ colonial history. It's a dog eat dog world, where colourful characters compete inside and outside of the ring.
How it feels: Satirical, absurd, campy and light. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Class, power, identity, ambition
Content: Mild violence, sexual content and language. No gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
