A Mando-pop musical about the bystander in all of us: Can you tell when a friend is in need?

Hidden Tunes is a Mando-pop musical accompanied by traditional Chinese instruments. Set in a prestigious music academy, the story follows two classmates, brought together by their passion for music. When one of them faces sexual harassment from a respected professor, the two classmates must navigate the emotional turmoil that follows and find courage again in music and friendship. “Hidden Tunes” unravels the creative world of aspiring music students and puts the audience in the shoes of a bystander, asking the question: “Can we recognize when a friend is in need? And what can we do for them?”

Content Warning: Mentions and discussions of sexual harassment. No sexual violence is depicted on stage but it is discussed by characters throughout the show. Sexism and misogyny.
