Basement Theatre presents
How To Throw A Chinese Funeral

When Lily and Anna’s grandmother passes away, they must reunite with their family in Malaysia to orchestrate her Taoist funeral - a custom lost even to their headstrong mum and outrageous Auntie. With old tensions bursting and new revelations challenging all they thought was true, the family must ask themselves: When the past is forgotten, are we next?

Follow three generations of women through Kuala Lumpur, Ipoh, and Auckland, tracing their lives and relationships across history toward a heart-wrenching and hilarious family reunion.
