'You cannot hold anything I say against me. I have legally obtained a visa for your country and haven't been blacklisted…yet.'
Immigration sucks.
When Almitra was 19 she made a deal with her Ma. She needed to leave Pakistan to have the future in theatre she always wanted. The two things stopping her? Her unique passport…and bloody Canada.
In a totally new musical experience from Rogue Projects, debut artist Almitra Mavalvala takes you on a 75 minute voyage from the rooftops of Karachi to the soft sands of Coogee in a genre-blending, and often very cheeky, story of one woman's journey home.
Under the musical direction of Tim Cunniffe (Summer Rain, Sydney Philharmonia Choirs), an intimate live band featuring cellist Kayla Flaxman, tabla player Aman Pal, and celebrated sitar virtuoso Sarita McHarg, will bring the Hayes Theatre stage alive with ten original songs in a fusion of Eastern and Western musical styles.
Director and dramaturg Bernadette Fam (Chewing Gum Dreams) has brought together an exciting team of creatives including lighting designer Lucia Haddad (Not Today, Eurovision) and Production Designer Rita Naidu (Marriage Agency, Guards at the Taj), to immerse you in a heartfelt new show about borders and belonging.
Come for the cheekiness and music, stay for the chai.
