Avg. Event Rating (5.0 Stars): Add Review/Comment

A revealing backstage comedy from the Tony Award-winning author of M Butterfly, this ferociously funny, utterly unreliable memoir chronicles David Henry Hwang’s struggle to define racial identity in the mixed-up melting pot of contemporary America. Part fact, part fiction, provocative yet full of heart, this Obie Award winner is a tale of cultural politics, family fortunes, and artistic integrity, an insightful look at the pitfalls and promise of our “P.C.” world. Broadway star Francis Jue recreates his award-winning performance.

    This thought-provoking show is hilariously funny while probing the serious issue of racism with a fresh approach. It is also fabulously acted, with most of the small cast playing many, many roles, crossing race and gender boundaries. No! Stomping on race and gender boundaries. Go and enjoy this show. Collapse
