Legendary is a ritual-musical where a queer Asian immigrant transforms myth, memory, and identity into a new origin story

All performances as part of MTFestUK 2026 will be presented in an abridged workshop format, with scripts in hand.

Legendary is a vibrant, ritualistic solo musical that traces a queer Asian immigrant’s journey to reclaim lineage, language, and belonging.

Guided by Chinese mythology and the memories they carry across continents, the Narrator invites the audience into circle singing and call-and-response to co-create the story in real time.

Each chapter reveals another fracture — home, family, gender, legacy — until the Narrator begins to imagine a new creation myth rooted in their own truth.

Intimate, playful, and defiantly joyful, Legendary blurs concert, ritual, and theatre as it asks: What happens when you become the myth you never saw?
