A Cross-Cultural Love Story

Renowned independent theatre company, Wit Incorporated, return to the Melbourne stage this April & May!

'Dear Mama' tells the story of Taiwanese immigrant Li-Ting, as she follows her heart to Melbourne, finds a new community and toes a complex balance between her traditional Taiwanese family and the morals and culture of her new home. The semi-autobiographical story applies creative license to Lansy Feng's own experience as a Taiwanese immigrant in Australia and showcases her interests in multi-cultural storytelling. After two sell-out development playreads in November, Wit will tour this heartfelt, rom-com across three venues in Melbourne.

Lansy Feng, who wrote and performed four seasons of the highly-reviewed show How I Met My Dead Husband returns with a piece performed in English, Mandarin and French with original songs.

The writer, Lansy Feng said "I was inspired by all the different people I have met and the varied cultural encounters I have experienced. I write to tell my stories, introduce my heritage, culture and background. We are lucky to live in Melbourne, a multicultural city and I believe many people will relate to my story. I aim to contribute by introducing my Taiwanese culture through stories, plays and songs"
