About this listen
Send us a text
Welcome to CAAM (Center for Asian American Media) Fest! We're on the red carpet for a film of the Broadway play Yellow Face. The play was written by David Henry Hwang (and is semi-autobiographical), about an American playwright who protests "yellowface" casting in the musical "Miss Saigon", only to mistakenly cast a white actor as the Asian lead in his own play.
We are joined by actors Francis Jue, Daniel Dae Kim, and Shannon Tyo, to discuss turning difficult topics into satire, the importance of public broadcasting, and examples of Asian Americans in the media that finally made us feel seen.
Yellow Face is streaming right now on PBS*!
* Federal funding that supports public media is at risk of being eliminated. Urge Congress to save public media HERE!
