As one of Asia’s leading action stars, Maria Tran has always been a fighter, smashing the glass ceiling with every powerful roundhouse she lands on screen. Following in the footsteps of her idols Michelle Yeoh, Jackie Chan, and Cynthia Rothrock, Maria took her love of 80s action films and turned it into a spectacular career.

Yet in her home country of Australia, Maria faces barriers that are the hardest to break down. Filled with world-class stunts, weapon-wielding, and explosive choreography, Maria’s jaw-dropping fighting skills leap from screen to stage in this virtuosic autobiographical performance.

Directed by Kaz Therese, Action Star is a compelling exposé of the powerful gender stereotypes, identity politics, and racism that simmer under the surface of Western society, and one woman’s battle to be recognised in a world of opposition.
