About The AccountantsExperience an electrifying encounter of cultures as China and India take centre stage in this awe-inspiring theatrical event from visionary artist Keith Khan, choreographed by Xiexin Dance Theatre and Terence Lewis Contemporary Dance Company.
This dance extravaganza challenges our notions of identity and cultural dominance.
Main characters Kash and Liam â voiced by the talented Josh Hart and actor and author Shobna Gulati â are of British-Chinese and British-Indian heritage. Delivered via texts and voice notes, their banter and soul-searching dialogues playfully debate which cultural superpower reigns supreme â from food to iconic landmarks and spiritual beliefs.
This battle is enriched by a high-tech visual and acoustic feast crafted by the ARIA-nominated sound artist Somatic and the award-winning design studio idontloveyouanymore providing stunning immersive visuals, plus lighting design from the award-winning Simon Corder and dramaturgy by Jude Christian.
Brought to you by Keith Khan, whose grand artistic creations have adorned events from the Notting Hill Carnival to the London 2012 Olympic Games, The Accountants invites you on a global journey right from your seat.

Amy & Viv had the pleasure of speaking with anti-racist activist, Ted Speaker and author of 'The Good Ally', Nova Reid. We cover A LOT. A trigger warning to our Black and people of colour friends, it's a heavy, heavy episode, BUT we also talk about joy, and we loved hearing about Nova and who she is outside of her job function (spoiler, she used to be a pro-singer - and hates karaoke!) We learnt so much, what an honour to have her on. Please follow her work and buy her book, it's an invaluable piece of anti-racism work that will stand the test of the time.

Viv introduces two new besea.n core team members King-Wey and Peiwen onto the poddy! We talk about things Peiwen notices moving over to the UK aged 14, like how we have separate taps and daylight savings (didn't realise that wasn't a thing in other countries?!), as well as delving into our turning points for thinking about race, identity. King-Wey shares her stories around friendship breakups, and uses a great phrase about spring cleaning friendships - perfect reason to dust the ol' friendship cobwebs.
A portion of this episode is sponsored by Barnardo's charity.
