Macho men or metrosexual guys? Mummy’s boys or fellas under their missus’ thumbs? These succesful, soulful and spirited Asian men have come a long way from their origins, but they've all got roots!

Self-made entrepreneurs, pukka professionals and successful executives with their Mercedes Benz lives and designer clad wives - but does the fire still burn in their bellies? Husbands, sons, uncles, brothers and fathers - we lift the lid on Asian men and see them through their own eyes.

The acclaimed Tamasha Theatre Company, responsible for the original 'East is East' and the hugely successful 'Strictly Dandia', answer these questions through a unique and powerful theatrical experience. Using verbatim performance techniques, interviews were conducted, taped and edited. As they are played back through earphones, four actors perform the exact words, bringing to life a whole host of characters using all the freshness, colour rhythms and quirky imperfections of human speech.
