Sydney Theatre Company: Congratulations, Get Rich! (恭喜发财, 人日快乐)
6 December @ 1:30 pm - 3:00 pm AEDT

Penned and performed by Merlynn Tong, this larger-than-life musical comedy celebrates the richness of Singaporean culture, while asking universal questions about the complexity of mother-daughter relationships and the healing power of vulnerability.
It’s a big night for Mandy (Tong), her last ever at the helm of her beloved karaoke bar. To celebrate, she’s hosting a one-night-only mega reunion special! That is until the ghosts of her mother and grandmother show up and Mandy’s best laid plans are foiled. For better or worse, Mandy will need to forge her own future.
Equal parts supernatural spectacular and moving family drama, this historic and international co-production with La Boite Theatre and Singapore Repertory Theatre, will pull its audience into a world where the border between here and the afterlife dissolves, and where past ideals are pitted up against contemporary concerns. Congratulations, Get Rich! is a hilarious and unbridled celebration of being alive.
