Culture OC previews The Chinese Lady.
“The authenticity of the journey of the play mirrored mine in so many different ways.”
“I didn’t want to play somebody fresh off the boat… but this play gutted me.”
“She’s brought here as a representative of a different country… in the hope that she can be the ambassador, the bridge, the gateway between two cultures.”
“They become appropriated, they themselves are turned into laborers… they’re turned into commodities.”
“We keep forgetting our history. When we forget our history, we forget where we’ve come from.”
“It’s a very American story. Everybody has the experience with being perceived as something else.”
“It’s a beautiful and hilarious, poetic show about somebody that’s so important to our history, that I think people don’t know about.”
“It’s timely because… we’re in a rough place of not being able to understand each other in society.”
“Michelle has the herculean task of carrying this show… But she handles it with such grace and agility.”
“She’s a master of making discoveries in the moment … It’s honestly thrilling to watch.”
