For ten years Mulan, disguised as a man, has fought for the Chinese Empire, but now the fighting is coming to an end, one last battle and she will be going home - but can she return to her old life and become a woman again? A search for an identity in a violent world. This project is Michelle Yim’s third solo show commission. It has toured Fringe Festivals and many UK venues.

Intentionally Disturbing
Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
