Staged Reading of Purple Cloud by Jessica Huang
2 PERFORMANCES ONLY
March 29 and 30
7:30 pm
The Den Theatre
2nd Floor
1333 N Milwaukee Ave
Chicago, Illinois
When you're hapa, you know deep down you're greater than the sum of your many parts. In Purple Cloud, three generations of Huangs deal with the many facets of their multiracial identities as -- accompanied by four Jade Pieces -- they embark on a mythical journey from China to Minnesota and back again. Grandpa Lee emigrates from Shanghai to America during World War II; his son Orville deals with his confusion as a first generation Asian American; and his granddaughter fights for her Chinese-ness through the search for her true name.
This program is sponsored in part by Asian Improv aRts: AA Arts Incubator.
