We pay our respects to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander ancestors of this land, their spirits and their legacy. The foundations laid by these ancestors give strength, inspiration and courage to current and future generations, both First Nations and non-First Nations peoples, towards creating a better Queensland.

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.

Recommended for audiences aged 15+

This production contains frequent coarse language, adult themes including sexual references, depictions of violence, and discrimination and racism based on verbatim stories and real life events in Australia and Aotearoa (New Zealand). It also contains the use of dynamic sound including simulated gun shot sounds and strobe lighting.
