From nagging aunties, Tinder dating and curfews at 30 – FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS lift the lid on the real South Asian struggle in Aotearoa.
20 talented performers have only 2 minutes each to share their challenges of being South Asian Kiwis. Unreachable expectations? Castes? Prejudice? Square rotis? And they’re about to spill the tea on it all!
What People Said
“First World Problems is an entertaining and enjoyable experience, with a strong focus on the forward movement of culture and definitions of cultural identity. The Basement’s description of the show as a compendium of ‘experimental’ works feels apt.” http://www.theatrescenes.co.nz/review-first-world-problems-the-basement/
“Agaram Productions, along with Prayas Theatre, have cooked up another amazing show. Challenging mainstream ideas and perspectives, the anthology of contemporary performances has something for everybody.” https://tearaway.co.nz/in-review-first-world-problems/
“First World Problems is a refreshing play and if I daresay a breakthrough project. It is innovative. The cast and crew have taken a bold step forward to put forth voices that were until now drowned in the noise that otherwise reverberates in our society.” https://www.indianweekender.co.nz/Pages/ArticleDetails/25/9697/In-focus/Theatre-reviewFirst-World-Problems
