Proudly Asian Theatre

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.

"They leave other theatre companies in the dust when it comes to how they service the needs of the Asian community here in Aotearoa, in a way that is meaningful and truly authentic.” - Stuff

“A coming-of-age for Asian theatre." - NZ Herald

"...adventurous and wild, sexy, smart, and not putting up with your shit." - Theatreview

Exciting announcement!

Auditions are now OPEN for PAT’s first show back from hiatus…

After a year-long hiatus, PAT is back — and we’re making our return in bold, brilliant fashion. Early this December, Auckland Live’s Herald Theatre will host the world premiere of Genuine and Stable, a sharp, funny, and intimately relatable new play by emerging playwright Uhyoung Choi.

Genuine and Stable follows a young couple’s love story from awkward beginnings to a shared life as it comes under the microscope of New Zealand’s immigration system. As an immigration officer digs into their case, the line between professional duty and personal reflection begins to blur, forcing him to confront his own relationship.

We welcome those with and without agents, this opportunity is based in Tāmaki.
