The Handbag is Not Your Mother is a daring new comedy theatre production that blends improvised performance, audience interaction, and powerful cultural commentary. Created and performed by a diverse cast of Japanese and mixed-race actors, the show delves into themes of identity, heritage, and the unexpected contents of our handbags.
What are you hiding in your handbag?
We know you carry it everywhere.
Two women. Two handbags.
An unusual encounter in a Relate counselling waiting room. It starts politely-until curiosity takes over, and things go deep throat.
In this calm, quiet, and clean room, Pandora’s bags burst open… and then-
※A handbag isn’t just a handbag. It’s your identity. Your culture. Everything you carry-whether you want to or not.
Performed by Midori Ogawa and Jaasvi Shah
With live improvisation and active audience engagement, no two performances are ever alike. Each show creates a unique experience, making the audience an active part of the emotional and comedic journey.
