return back

This award-winning play tells the story of a Chinatown girl who dreams about making it big in Hollywood

It takes its inspiration from the remarkable life of Anny May Wong, America’s first and brightest Chinese American movie star, presenting her loves, her struggles, her humiliations, and her triumphs

It spans her humble beginnings and the rigors of training in the studio system of L.B. Mayer and Samuel Goldwyn, to the heights of success in such classic films as Shanghai Express with Marlene Dietrich

A loving and unflinching homage to a woman ahead of her time

Bare stage, minimal props - runs about 90 minutes
