Meisoga tribe

Rehearsals underway for 16yo’s play

The play is about the legend of how Meisoga matriarch warrior, Sine Kepu, led her clan to find an island to save their lives and reclaim and protect their culture.

Set many centuries ago, the play tells of how the Meisoga tribe eventually found a new home on Misima Island in Milne Bay.

Fellow actor, Alphonse Aisi, says Meisoga is an important play for Papua New Guinea.

“Today the younger people forget their culture. Plays like Meisoga help keep the culture alive,” said Aisi.
