A DADDY ISSUES PLAY BY NATHAN JOE

On Christmas Eve, a white man and his younger Chinese boyfriend are waiting for the older white man’s half-Chinese daughter to show up. What could go wrong?

Nathan Joe deconstructs the domestic drama into a Groundhog Day-inspired series of failed reconciliations. A love story grappling with race, sexuality, love and fatherhood. Entertaining, accessible, thought-provoking. 

Starring Andrew Ford, Shervonne Grierson and Danny Lam, this is a contemporary story that speaks to an urban, multi-cultural city with intersections between culture and sexuality. 

Shortlisted for ADAM NZ Playwriting Award 2022.

Presented as part of Q Theatre MATCHBOX 2023.
