     I highly recommend this performance from this budding theatrical company that has taken a universal story of a still unaddressed topic, in particular the take on how bystanders console survivors, and imbues it with love, compassion and humour. A wonderful production. ” 

    - Theatre Matters


    Small Ripples Theatre aims to provide a platform for Asian artists to get involved in creating original theatre and tell impactful stories. Our past productions include the sold-out season of "Best Cabinet Maker" musical. "Hidden Tunes" is our latest production, written in Mandarin and accompanied by Chinese traditional instruments.

    "Hidden Tunes 弦外之影" is a Mando-pop musical accompanied by traditional Chinese instruments. Set in a prestigious music academy, the story follows two classmates, Xiao Qian and A Jia, who are brought together by their shared passion for music and composition. When darkness falls, will their friendship be enough to carry them through the emotional turmoil? Can we recognize when a friend is in need? And what can we do for them?

    Content Warning: Mentions and discussions of sexual harassment. No sexual violence is depicted on stage but it is discussed by characters throughout the show. Sexism and misogyny.

    "Hidden Tunes" is a participating show in La Mama‘s Festival of Mother Tongues (22/11-24/11), which will feature 17 shows presented in 13 different languages. "Hidden Tunes" is the only Mandarin show in the mix. For tickets to the festival run: https://lamama.com.au/whats-on...

    Joining the 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence campaign, we are putting on this special additional performance on 29/11, followed by a Q&A with our creative team.

    7-8pm: "Hidden Tunes" Performance

    8:15-9:15pm: Q&A

    No problem if you don’t understand Chinese! There will be English captions provided.

    We are working hard to bring this important narrative to stage! If you would like to support us, please consider donating through this link: https://artists.australiancult...
