公公‘s Jacket is a visual poem/ letter/ reflection in which Hooi-Ying re-imagines part of their grandfather’s legacy and with it reflects on their own position in their lineage. The writing is a direct continuation of > Dear Dad, as Hooi-Ying extends this search for a connection to their dad through this imagined connection to their grandfather.
As part of the Talent Traject 2023 of Theater Rotterdam Jong, Hooi-Ying transformed the poem into a short theatre monologue by adding to it a physical choreography, a set design and a lighting plan.
