Forging the Truth

by Yang Jiang

If you were looking for a comedy like Crazy Rich Asians, but wish it showed the other half of the coin -- join us for this classic play by a Chinese playwright. Here, proposals go awry, your Dad keeps trying to manage your love life like a business, and the contrivances of traditional marriage rituals are put on blast.

Premiere Party: 7 PM at Young Ethels in Gowanus, Brooklyn (506 Fifth Avenue)

Streaming: Available September 21st - September 23rd

Suggested Donation: $15

We offer all of these events at pay-what-you-can pricing or free. Your donations are essential to continuing the work, paying the artists involved, and helping us get back on proper stages when it is safe to do so. Thank you for helping us Expand the Canon.
