Join Potluck Asian America at Performance of Chinese Republicans with Talkback – $20 Tickets

February 28 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm EST
$20

Join Potluck Asian America at a special community performance of Chinese Republicans and a post show discussion with guest panelists, Alex Lin and David Henry Hwang.   $20 Tickets

Chinese Republicans is a biting new satirical drama from Forbes’ 30 Under 30 Playwright Alex Lin and Award-Winning Director Chay Yew.

Three high-powered businesswomen meet for lunch every month to discuss their latest career triumphs, as they’ve done for decades. But the group is jolted when Katie, a bright-eyed 24-year-old new to the workforce, joins to navigate the world of corporate finance. As each of the women attempts to steer Katie towards what they’re certain is best, they’re forced to grapple with how much they already have and are willing to sacrifice to climb the corporate ladder.

Shifting between sharp-tongued humor and the harsh realities of modern capitalism, this world premiere production explores themes of assimilation, intergenerational conflict, and gender politics in the workplace—all with unflinching wit and empathy. Chinese Republicans is a new play from a thrilling new American voice and tells a truly American story.

This performance includes a “pay what you wish” option starting at $20. Availability is limited and we encourage early RSVPs.

Cast: Jennifer Ikeda, Ben Langhorst, Jully Lee, Jodi Long, Anna Zavelson

Harold and Miriam Steinberg Center for Theatre, Laura Pels Theatre, 111 West 46th Street, New York, NY
