Comedian Rhian Wood-Hill is spinning some ludicrous yarns as part of a New Zealand tour for his new show, How I Met My Father - the true story of when he met his father at age 21.
Mr Wood-Hill knew just a few things about his father growing up - he was a criminal, he was charming, he was good looking, and Samoan.
Being raised in Temuka, a town on New Zealand's Canterbury Plains, Rhian did not have many reference points to his Samoan identity, and life experience suggests he lacks most of his father's other qualities.
With a perfect balance of comedy and drama, wild anecdotes and down-to-earth
moments, How I Met My Father is expected to be both honest and hilarious - an hour where you are invited to laugh wholeheartedly at someone else's misfortune.
Mr Wood-Hill said what he was looking forward to most was telling his story the way he wanted to tell it.
