Klappentext
"A chewy, challenging work that draws its comedy from racial misunderstandings and from shrewd dissection of ways in which we are all, at times, blind."—Daniel D'Addario, VarietyPart biography, part comic fantasy, Yellow Face is a Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright David Henry Hwang's sendup of anti Asian stereotypes and the traps he falls into searching for acceptance in a not so colorblind world. The play starts in the 1990s as the fictional DHH is casting Miss Saigon and unwittingly casts a white actor in the role of the engineer. This happens alongside the real-life investigation of Hwang’s father, the first Asian American to own a federally chartered bank, and the espionage charges against physicist Wen Ho Lee. Adroitly combining a light touch with weighty political and emotional issues, Hwang creates a "a docu-style comedy recounting [a] controversy from his point of view” (Washington Post).
