ABOUT THE SHOW
Expect-Asian is a coming-of-age story that centers on Jack, a young Asian American, and his quest to find his identity. While on his journey, he is constantly being torn between his fathers strict standards, and being accepted by his peers. After crushing social rejections, and cultural disappointments, he learns to trust himself, and stand on his own two feet. Expect-Asian sheds light on cultural and identity issues affecting young Asian Americans.
