"Light": A Solo Chinese Play of Family and Hope
"Light" is a one-woman play that explores the powerful bond between father and daughter through Chinese shadow puppetry and storytelling.
Light (光) | An Intimate Solo Play with Chinese Shadow Puppetry
A moving theatrical experience about family, memory, and the love that stays with us
After moving audiences in Beijing, Harbin, New York, and Austin, Light (光) comes to the Dougherty Arts Center as an intimate solo performance written, directed, and performed by Snow (Xue Zheng Hwang).
Blending deeply personal storytelling, music, and the visual poetry of traditional Chinese shadow puppetry, Light tells the story of a daughter’s journey to understand her father through memory, distance, loss, and love. It is deeply personal, yet powerfully universal.
Performed in Chinese with English subtitles, Light invites both Chinese-speaking and non-Chinese-speaking audiences into the same emotional world. You do not need to speak Chinese to feel it. The emotions are immediate, human, and unmistakable.
This is not a large commercial production. It is something rarer: a heartfelt, artist-driven piece experienced up close, where small moments carry real weight. Audiences often describe Light as tender, unexpectedly funny, and quietly devastating. Many leave thinking about their own parents, their own family, and the words they wish they had said.
If you are looking for a loud, flashy night out, this may not be that. But if you are looking for a meaningful live performance with emotional depth, beauty, and cultural richness, Light is a night worth having.
Why audiences connect with Light
A one-woman play combining contemporary theatre and Chinese shadow puppetry
Featured in the United Solo Festival in New York
A deeply human story about family, memory, grief, and healing
An intimate live performance that stays with you long after the final moment
This is a piece for anyone who has ever:
tried to understand a parent more fully
carried love through grief or distance
wanted theatre that feels intimate, honest, and real
Some audience members laugh. Some cry. Many leave thinking about their own family.
If you have ever loved a parent, missed someone deeply, or wanted theatre that feels honest and human, Light may stay with you long after the curtain falls.
Performance Details
Duration: 75 minutes, no intermission
Language: Chinese with English subtitles
Venue: Dougherty Arts Center, Austin
