A quarter of a century after its premiere, Oscar Kightley's play Dawn Raids - dealing with the injustice of the 1970's government crackdown on overstayers - is being reimagined.
The incident was still a raw, shameful memory when Dawn Raids was first performed in 1997.
But now for many it's become a piece of our history. They may have barely heard of these events. Even if they have, they may not realise the damage done to Pasifika families who were ripped apart by the early morning raids on their homes.

She first asked him how much he knew of the original raids.
Dawn Raids opens at the ASB Waterfront Theatre in Tāmaki Makaurau on August 16th.
