About the Play

Yellow Face





David Henry Hwang's hilarious is-he-or-isn’t-he comedy of identity, show business, and (perhaps) autobiography.


Story:

Inspired by real events, the playwright’s fictionalized doppelgänger protests yellowface casting in Miss Saigon, only to mistakenly cast a white actor as the Asian lead in his own play.
