Join us for the premier season of Lansy Feng’s original work ‘Dear Mama, There’s Something Maybe I Should Tell You…’
親愛的媽媽, 有些事我也許應該要告訴你...
A cross-cultural love story.
When Li-Ting escapes from Taiwan to arrive in Melbourne, she's expecting to find love, a career and new beginnings.
She stumbles into so much more.
Dear Mama follows Li-Ting and her eclectic crew of misfit mates on a messy and hilarious journey to find new community, new stories, new lingo, and a whole new love of beer.
But what is Li-Ting hiding?
Dear Mama is an original piece performed in English, Mandarin and French with musical interludes and original songs.
