Carried by the River is an original play by Diana Tso, directed by William Yong.

Kai, a young Asian woman raised in Canada, discovers a life-altering truth on her birthday when her mother passes away. Drawn to the river and the memories her mother once shared, Kai embarks on a transformative journey to China. Along the way, she meets three fateful women whose lives intertwine with hers in unexpected ways and encounters spirit animals who guide her toward an enigmatic reckoning with her roots. As she navigates grief and relationships, Kai uncovers a profound understanding of life’s deeper truths. This lyrical tale intertwines myth, memory, and identity, inviting audiences into an evocative world where the lines between reality and the imagined blur.

Please note: Content includes adoption, China’s one-child policy, loss of parent and LGBTQ+ topics.
