Show Synopsis
What does it mean to belong? What parts of our identity do we inherit, and which do we create for ourselves? Kevin has always wondered about his roots. He is Hakka‑Chinese (客家)—he thinks. When he receives an unexpected call asking him to take on a project about Hakka identity, Kevin is launched into a compelling journey, uncovering stories he never expected to find.
Benevolence is a multi‑layered Chinese‑Canadian story that explores migration, identity, and cultural inheritance. Culturally specific yet widely resonant, the play speaks to young people navigating hybrid identities and questions of belonging. Kevin’s search invites students to reflect on how history, family, and personal choice shape who we are, and who we are becoming.
Qualifications
- Valid BC class 5 driver’s license or equivalent provincial license.
- Valid first aid certification or willingness to obtain one.
