NEW STUFF
Our monthly night of rehearsed readings. Join us for the opportunity to see exciting new work and engage in conversation with other writers, creatives, and theatre-goers.
Coming Up: Sunday 1 February - 5.30pm
HOT POT 火鍋
by Hongwei Bao with Auka Productions
Four Chinese friends meet at a hot pot restaurant for a class reunion after the Covid pandemic. Over dinner, the four friends reminisce about the good old days and boast of their current achievements. As life trajectories diverge, the idealism of their youth gives way to pragmatism and cynicism. Will their friendships stand the test of time? Will old lovers rekindle their past romance? Can gay sexuality be discussed, and expressed, in a queer-unfriendly and politically sensitive environment?
A story about friendship, love and the pursuit of an authentic life under challenging circumstances.
