Skyduck: A Chinese Spy Comedy
By Sam Wang
Presented by Skyduck & Co
Directed by Aileen Huynh
Think Chinese Top Gun with 007 to a J-Pop backing track!
Skyduck: A Chinese Spy Comedy is a quirky and irrelevant parody of China’s top secret agents trying to steal America’s top-secret fighter jet software in the early 1990s – all while Australia was busy preparing for the Sydney Olympics!
Featuring an outrageous mix of AV, puppets and musical numbers, Skyduck hysterically recreates an international action spy comedy on stage utilising every DIY theatre trick in the books.
Written and performed by Sam Wang (New Gold Mountain, Runaway Millionaires, Life is Easy), this hilarious, bilingual solo comedy was nominated for ‘Best Male Lead in an Independent Production’ at the Sydney Theatre Awards 2019 and was mentioned in Timeout Sydney as one of the best stage shows of 2019.
‘4.5 stars… a hilarious and nostalgic thrill ride through time and pop culture’
— Artshub
‘4.5 stars… Four characters, three cultures, two languages, one great show’
— State of the Arts
‘Delightfully funny! Sam Wang’s immersion in his homemade espionage action thriller is a pleasure to behold… I can guarantee you won’t have seen anything else quite
like it.’
— Audrey Journal
