'Slow Boat' by Anna Yen
Thu 1 Sep – Sat 10 Sep,
Powerhouse Theatre, BRISBANE POWERHOUSE
Inspired by an incredible true story, six indentured Chinese workers stage a theatre show at Brisbane's Bulimba Dockyards to celebrate and recount an epic tale of brotherhood and resilience.
Blending vaudeville, musical theatre, circus, Cantonese Opera and martial arts, 'Slow Boat' is a play with-in a play, inspired by the unexpected arrival in Australia of playwright Anna Yen’s father, along with 580 other Chinese men, during WWII.
