Yellow Face

By David Henry Hwang
A co-production of Center Theatre Group Mark Taper Forum and the Public Theater of New York
in association with East West Players

A biting and funny new play about race and identity in America by Tony Award-winner David Henry Hwang will have its world premiere as the final production of the Taper's 40th Season. Hwang writes himself into the middle of his play, which is launched with the backstage revelations of an earlier play he had written that flopped infamously on Broadway. It appears that a white actor had been unknowingly cast in the role of an Asian, which is especially embarrassing for Hwang who had led the Asian American uproar when a Welsh actor was cast as a Eurasian in the 1991 Broadway opening of Miss Saigon.
