Skyduck: A
Chinese Spy Comedy

By Sam Wang

  • Venue Downstairs Theatre
  • Dates 11 – 20 July 2019

    It’s 1993… China has just launched Operation Skyduck!

    Leading the mission are Captain Yan and Agent Chang. Their objective: to steal America’s most prized flight simulation software.

    After launching an audacious hack into ‘The Matrix’ of the Royal Australian Aerobatic Squadron, they find themselves trapped by a hotshot NSA agent, Commander Kendrick. His plan? To destroy China’s military ambition once on for all…through Inception.

    Quirky and irreverent, Skyduck is a bilingual solo parody of East meets West through the prism of 90’s post-Cold War nostalgia. Think Top Gun meets 007 with a J-Pop backing track.
