2026: The Year of Living Courageously

The New Year – a moment to pause, and look ahead with a little more heart than fear. This year isn’t about grand gestures or impossible resolutions. It’s about the small, steady acts of courage that help us live more openly and more kindly. This show will remind us that courage isn’t loud – it’s lived.

A choice, a day, and a healing at a time. As the character Billy Kwan almost says to Guy Hamilton in Jakarta: “Most of us become children again when we enter the foothills of the new year. And last night I watched you walk back into childhood. With all its opposite intensities: laughter and misery, the crazy and the grim, the familiar and the figures in the shadows.”
