Proudly Asian Theatre Company
Proudly Asian Theatre delivers contemporary performance works driven by Asian artists in Aotearoa.
Our works are heart-fuelled and stereotype-shattering, with collaboration, innovation and whānau at the fore of their creation.
Mission
We aim to connect and empower Asian talent to produce original and contemporary theatre works, which represents, entertains and breaks down barriers of acceptance and visibility in Aotearoa.
Our Story
PAT was formed by actors Chye-Ling Huang and James Roque in 2013 as a reaction to the lack of Asian representation in Aotearoa New Zealand.
Founded as Pretty Asian Theatre - a name reflective of a shaky sense of diaspora Asian identity - as we made work, connected with our community and realised the impact our stories could have, we staged our first original show in 2016, becoming Proudly Asian Theatre.
Our focus shifted to our community, audience and others like us. We pioneer theatre that explodes the idea of what Asian stories are - works that challenge, re-invent and entertain.
