Step into a world where ancient legend meets the modern magic of Queer Asian Excellence.
Charlie Wan and Dyan Tai present: Mulan's Tea Party - a bold new experience merging dance, drag, and live music into a kaleidoscopic celebration of queer Asian identity.
This 20-minute live performance features original compositions by Dyan Tai - renowned Malaysian-Chinese hyperpop artist and founder of Worship Queer Collective - alongside electrifying choreography and curation by Naarm-based performer and producer Charlie Wan. Together, these two visionary non-binary artists pay homage to the story of Mulan, reimagined through a contemporary lens of gender fluidity, cultural pride, and artistic rebellion.
This is more than a performance - it's a love letter to our younger selves who searched for reflections in ancient myths. It's a reminder that queerness and culture do not cancel each other out - they can blossom together.
