PAST LIVES (25 mins)
Presented by LΓͺ Kim Thanh, Janette McBride, MatΓas Avaca (International ensemble: Hanoi (Vietnam), Brisbane (Australia), Auckland (New Zealand)) as part of the Brisbane Improv Festival 2026.
In Asian cultures, there's a strong belief in the invisible thread of destiny connecting souls at a beautiful intersection of fate. But what happens if those who shared a profound connection in a past life are reborn into bodies that cannot communicate?
The show follows three souls across two timelines: a past life where they are deeply connected and share a common language, and a current life where they meet as strangers separated by language barriers.
This moving format have explored whether our deepest human bonds require words to survive on global stages in Singapore, Norway, China, and Vietnam. What about this time?
