Responding to AN OCTOROON 

with Michelle Law

Early in the development process, we asked writer Michelle Law to be the Responding Artist for AN OCTOROON. Her task would be to create a work that used the influences of the play to create an original piece of art. 

"Race: A Performance is my response to AN OCTOROON from the perspective of an Asian Australian person whose identity has - like all coloured people in our country - been informed by supremacy and oppression."
