PASSING: An Asian-Australian Musical - Event image

PASSING: An Asian-Australian Musical

Rachel was born in Thailand and migrated to Australia to pursue her dreams of becoming a chart-topping pop-singer. Little does she know that a chance meeting with a stranger in a dingy bar is going to change both their lives for the better.

Set to an indie pop, jazz and hip hop soundtrack, PASSING shows how music can transcend barriers and highlights the struggles of citizenship, racial micro-aggressions and clashing of values in a modern, culturally diverse Australia.

PASSING: An Asian-Australian Musical is an original show dreamed up and created by Asian-Australian artists.
