Legendary
Ancient myths. Modern questions. International multi award-winning artist and singer-songwriter Cheeyang Ng blends Chinese mythology, memory and queer legacy in the electrifying solo ritual musical Legendary, a life-affirming tale of queer joy and identity. Through communal song and the retelling of ancient myths, they explore their relationship with family, tradition and the stories that have shaped them, but never reflected them. In the beginning, there was a god named Pan Gu and a ravishing goddess named Nü Wa. A global internet sensation, Legendary doesn't just tell a story: it invites the audience to create one. 'Extraordinary' (Jason Robert Brown).

One of the most beautiful, moving and healing shows I have ever seen. Still singing the songs. Totally original and meaningful and life changing. It really makes you feel and think and heal and love who you are. Truly rare and inspirational! Best cry I’ve had in a long time! I highly recommend for everyone! Stunning work straight from the heart that touches every heart in the room. I can’t wait to see where it goes! Amaze!!! - Jerry Phelps — ★★★★★ (5/5) — July 18, 2026
Truly original. What a stunning work of art in a moving story that truly immerses you in your own self discovery. Highly recommend! Cannot wait to see how far this show reaches. - Joe Hetterly — ★★★★★ (5/5) — June 30, 2026
Absolutely stunning! I saw the show in NYC and it was one of the most moving experiences I've had in the theatre in a long time. The music and storytelling are incredible, but it's really the communal nature of the piece that makes it so powerful. There wasn't a dry eye in the house. A must see!
