Here's the situation: I'm Jo Yuan, a mixed-race East Asian. My mother is from Shanghai, my father is from Busan, and they met in Osaka before moving to the U.S.. They're both highly unreliable narrators and refuse to tell me a cohesive story or proper truth. I've been on a mission to get some answers... 

Audience members are invited to stay for a Q&A with Jo Yuan immediately following the performance.

Content Advisory: Some depictions of hate speech and racism may not be suitable for all audiences.
