Bringing this sell-out show to his hometown, Chinese-Kiwi playwright Nathan Joe has curated a celebration of the finest BIPOC storytellers and spoken word artists. Dirty Passports features your favourite minorities behaving badly, untwisting their tongues and shattering stereotypes all for your displeasure. Featuring Nathan Joe, Khadro Mohamed, Vanessa Crofskey, Zephyr Zhang, Juanita Hepi (Kāi Tahu, Waitaha, Kāti Māmoe, Ngāti Mutunga, Moriori, Ngāti Kahungunu, Ngāti Wai, Ngāpuhi), Josiah Morgan (Kāi Tahu, Ngāti Maniapoto) and special international guest, Kevin Jared Hosein.
‘Dirty Passports gave the intersectional vibes I have been (and always am) craving — decolonisation, queerness, feminist agendas… I wasn’t left wanting on any fronts.’ – The Speakeasy
