The Mikado Or The Ch*Nky Chongy Yellowface Operetta: The Orientals Are From The Future (Workshop Production)

If the title and image offend you, this show is for you. Using only songs and text from The Mikado, the (almost) all-Asian/Pacific Islander American cast turn Gilbert and Sullivan's "classic" on its head. Set in an internment camp--in the FUTURE--we reclaim this piece from the white boys in yellowface. This is a workshop production in preparation for a full run in Fall/Spring. Be there, get offended. In a good way. ONE NIGHT ONLY. Talkback to follow: Please stick around to give suggestions on how we can be more effectively offensive! Directed by kt shorb.
