Doors open 30 minutes before the performance. We apologize, but this venue is not wheelchair accessible. General Admission seating. All ages welcome.


Sounding two parallel histories, Double Happiness: Detour This Way winds through complexities of the Chinese diaspora by tracing migration paths of two families, connecting both shores of the Pacific using live music in a multimedia performance.

Nancy Tam, a 2018 Emerge on Main artist, fuses sound and performance as the foundation of her collaborative, interdisciplinary works. Robyn Jacob is a pianist, singer, composer, and educator. She strives for beauty that defies category.

A Nancy Tam and Robyn Jacob Production.

This performance is produced in association with plastic orchid factory, Neworld Theatre, and Music on Main.
