No Foreigners
A collaboration of fu-GEN Theatre and Hong Kong Exile In Association with The Theatre Centre and Theatre Conspiracy
Shopping malls become a portal into surreal worlds that carry the nuanced stories of loss and resilience from the Chinese diaspora. This multimedia performance investigates malls as racialized spaces of cultural creation and clash where fashion, food, and commodity tether communities to a vital sense of home. A collaboration between ground-breaking Vancouver interdisciplinary super group Hong Kong Exile and Governor General’s award-winning playwright David Yee of fu-GEN Theatre.
No Foreigners weaves together text, miniatures and media design as it attempts to unpack what is at the heart of “Chineseness”. A Hong Kong Exile and fu-GEN Theatre collaboration, produced in association with Theatre Conspiracy (Vancouver) and The Theatre Centre (Toronto).
