A family held together with one lifeline – food.

Helen has grown up in the UK, but always felt a piece of her story was missing. Amidst the skyscrapers and bustling streets of Hong Kong, she meets her grandmother, Lily Kwok, and steps into a past of shocking family secrets that will change her life forever.

Based on Helen Tse’s bestselling novel Sweet Mandarin, this evocative new play by award-winning writer In-Sook Chappell tells the extraordinary story of the women behind the famous Manchester restaurant.

In-Sook's first play This Isn't Romance won the Verity Bargate Award and was produced at the Soho Theatre and the National Theatre Company of Korea. P'yongyang was shortlisted for the Bruntwood Prize and produced at the Finborough Theatre. She is currently on attachment at the National Theatre Studio and her NT Connections play The Free9 is being produced across the country.
