'We float – we’re not based in one place – we’re floating Islanders. I always come back to theatre, theatre is my first home.’ – Makerita Urale This book celebrates 30 years of Pasifika theatre in Aotearoa/New Zealand. Pacific Underground, Pacific Theatre, The Laughing Samoans, The Conch, The Naked Samoans, Kila Kokonut Krew – the distinctive style and themes of Pasifika theatre have been developed by many individuals and theatre companies in New Zealand. Authors Lisa Warrington and David O’Donnell have interviewed over 30 theatre practitioners to tell the story of Pasifika theatre in Aotearoa from 1984 to 2015. This lively book showcases playwrights, directors and performers whose heritage lies in Samoa, Niue, Fiji, Tonga, Tokelau and the Cook Islands. Extracts from the interviews are threaded throughout the book, providing often entertaining insights into their history and creative practice. While the immigrant experience of living in two worlds is often seen as troubled, the authors suggest that this â€in-between-ness’ has been turned to advantage in Pasifika theatre to create a unique and often subversive performance phenomenon. Not only is Pasifika theatre a success story within the performing arts in New Zealand, it is also an intriguing case study of migrant theatre that has international resonance.

Good product with an unexpected flaw
Color: Black
I like this fan. It's compact, easy to use, inexpensive, and kind of cute. The fan is decent. Not insanely strong, not too weak. It's good for its price.
But am I the only one who thought the wrist strap was absurdly difficult to pass through the second hole??? It was honestly incredibly frustrating. I tried for five minutes without any tools, and it was impossible due to the combination of the shape and depth of the hollow side of the fan case and the short length of the thin loop on the wrist strap. Perhaps a dexterous child with smaller fingers could do it better. I eventually used a long piece of thread to loop and pull the thin loop back through the second hole. Maybe a paper clip bent into a small hook may work also. I took off 1 whole star for this frustration and struggle.

Very glad I packed this for travel and commuting
Color: Black, Color: Black
I bought this mainly for travel and commuting because I tend to run warm on delayed flights, crowded buses, and long travel days. I honestly thought this might end up being one of those “just in case” gadgets that sits in my bag unused, but it has actually stayed in my commuter backpack ever since I bought it.
I used it recently during a flight that sat on the tarmac longer than expected before takeoff, and later again on a crowded, stuffy bus ride home. It made a noticeable difference and was easy to pull out quickly without taking up much room in my tote bag.
The airflow is stronger than I expected for the size, and I like that it has two settings depending on how much airflow you want. It’s also fairly quiet, which I appreciated while traveling around other people.
Battery life has been solid so far and it charges easily. I also like that it has a small flashlight built in, which is surprisingly handy while traveling and makes it feel a little more useful as an all-in-one item to keep in a commuter or travel bag.
Obviously it’s not air conditioning, but for travel, commuting, hotel rooms, or just keeping in your bag during warmer months, I’ve found it genuinely useful and have already used it more than I expected.

Perfect Wind Speeds, Size, Weight, and Price Here on Amazon Prime
Color: Pink
My wife uses this little fan when she experiences one of her occasional hot flashes. And she said it works well for these times. She also uses it when we are at an outdoor market or park when the temperature rises along with the humidity thus providing a little respite from the these conditions.
She likes the size, weight, the included lanyard, and the fact that it is so quite when in use. A full charge seems to last for a two to three hours depending on the selected speed of the fan itself.
There are other more powerful portable handheld fans available, however, this one seems to be the perfect compromise between air speeds, size, weight, and price.

Hot flashes? Meet your new bff
Color: Pink, Color: Pink
If you read the title of this review then you probably know exactly why I purchased this Josulife fan! Apparently, I now need a fan for every activity I do as power surges can happen anytime anywhere 🥵. I use the fan while applying my makeup ( cuz it’s hard to put on makeup when your face is melting lol 🫠), when I’m cooking ( because food and sweat are gross), and even scrolling in my phone now because I can break out into a sweat doing absolutely nothing. IYKYK! Needless to say, this little fan is running a lot! The battery life is great, I only charge it once a day! It’s quiet and has two speeds and I’m surprised with how bright the flashlight is. It can double as a power bank so that’s a plus. It’s compact and fits easily in pockets or purses making it easy to take with you everywhere.

Here for a good time, not a long time…
Color: Pink
This fan really was great for use at work (fit in my pencil case to bring up to whichever docket I had to cover; quiet enough to run during court; and the light on the end helped me find countless pens and miscellaneous supplies that fell under the dark/closed-in clerk’s desks), however, I had to order a new one after 5 months of daily use because it just stopped turning on (the light would work, but the fan motor must have died out). I made an extra effort not to over-charge it when I got the second one, so when it died again after another ~5 months, I pivoted to trying a different product. Maybe it would work better for someone not using it so often, because aside from longevity, it was a handy little tool.
If they made it with a more durable/quality fan motor, I’d probably re-order again (but I highly doubt that’ll happen haha)
