A new multicultural cabaret that will showcase multi-ethnic talent while taking you on a journey of what it's like to be mixed race. WE SO HAPA will explore different stages in our lives and career where our diverse makeup played a part of who we are and what opportunities it has led us to. Breaking stereotypes and challenging the general perspective of society, WE SO HAPA will open your eyes and hearts to acknowledge that we are just like you, we are all human.
