Not Our Home, Not Our Home

In this surreal drama-comedy, two Taiwanese-American brothers return to Taipei for Chinese New Year, carrying baggage both literal and emotional—including the ashes of a childhood cat. Set against political tension and ancestral ritual, Not Our Home, Not Our Home explores the costs of immigration, the ache of cultural dissonance, and the ghosts we carry across generations. Laced with dark humor, horror elements, and underscored by a lush original score, this play blurs the line between memory and myth, asking: What do we owe the places we leave behind—and the people we become?
