A 1.49m Chinese-Dutch actor turns bullying, shame, Shakespeare, stand-up comedy and theatre into a personal story of survival, power and transformation.
Workshop presentation, Grotowski intensive 5 days of writing 2 days of rehearsals.
With the Theatre No Theatre team under guidance of Master teacher Thomas Richards.
In this presentation, Kwok Wan mixes theatre, stand-up comedy, physical comedy and Shakespeare’s “To be or not to be” from Hamlet — but through the eyes of a small Asian actor who was bullied for being different and had to fight his way from nothing to something.
This is not just a comedy piece.
It is about being underestimated.
It is about being laughed at.
It is about turning pain into performance.
It is about becoming unforgettable.
