An uncomfortably funny and eye-opening look at racism and privilege – because laughing and squirming can go hand in hand.

From award-winning Chinese-New Zealand writer and poet Nathan Joe, Scenes From a Yellow Peril is less a play and more of a punchy, poetic mixtape of insights that explores the painful ways people are othered, yet refusing to be silenced.

Performed and created by a fresh, fearless ensemble of upcoming Queensland talent, the two-time QLD Matilda Award-winning production (Best Independent Production and Best Ensemble, 2024) offers a razor-sharp, at times darkly funny look at what it means to be of Asian identity in our current political reality; both here and in Aotearoa.
