You see a contagion. You make an equation. You fear an invasion. When it's your evasion.


PRESENTED BY MOONGATE PRODUCTIONS

A collective of leading actors, writers, directors and creatives of East and South East Asian heritage from the UK’s performing arts industry joined forces online to present a new digital arts event titled WeRNotVirus. This urgent artistic response aimed to shine a light on the surge in hate crime directed towards the community during the Covid-19 crisis.

The themes explore race, identity, representation, perspective and economics through the lens of East and South East Asian artists and their communities. 

A panel discussion with leading academics and activists rounded off the performances after each show.

WeRNotVirus took place via Zoom on 13-14 June. It is available to watch on Omnibus Theatre‘s YouTube channel here
