SUMMARY:King of the Yees
DESCRIPTION:For nearly twenty years\, Larry Yee has been the heart and soul of the Yee Fung Toy Family Association\, a fraternal organization in San Francisco’s iconic Chinatown. But to his daughter Lauren\, a playwright living in New York\, the association is an obsolete relic of a vanishing world. When Larry suddenly disappears\, Lauren sets off on a wild quest to find him\, embarking on a surreal\, magical journey through the history and myths of her own lineage. KING OF THE YEES is a hilarious and heartfelt “kind of true” story by Signature resident artist Lauren Yee\, who turns her incisive comedic eye on what we inherit and what it means to truly be a Yee.  \n \nAbout the Playwright \n \nLAUREN YEE is proud to be a Signature Theatre resident playwright. She is an award-winning playwright\, screenwriter\, and librettist based in New York City. Prior to the pandemic\, Lauren was named by American Theatre as the second-most-produced playwright of that upcoming season.

She is writing the book for the musical adaptation of Madeleine L’Engle’s A Wrinkle in Time\, with music and lyrics by Heather Christian. Honors include the Doris Duke Artists Award\, Whiting Award\, Steinberg/ATCA Award\, American Academy of Arts and Letters literature award\, Horton Foote Prize\, Kesselring Prize\, Primus Prize\, a Hodder Fellowship at Princeton\, and the #1 and #2 plays on the 2017 Kilroys List.

SUMMARY:National Dance Company of Korea: Mask Off
DESCRIPTION:Mask Off looks beyond the ornate costumes\, accessories\, and visual images typically associated with “tradition\,” and instead delves into the breath\, form\, and movement that lie at its core. Choreographer Lee Jae-hwa\, who has long explored the essence of “contemporary Korean dance\,“ draws inspiration from talchum (Korea’s traditional mask dance) to break away from fixed ideas of what is considered “Korean.“ Talchum is a traditional masked dance known for its satire of social issues and the ruling classes during the Joseon Dynasty. Performed outdoors for common people\, it features raw breathing\, exaggerated gestures\, and energetic physicality— elements that\, in many ways\, resonate more closely with street dance than with other traditional forms. Focusing on these dynamic qualities\, Lee reimagines the methodology of talchum as a contemporary language of movement that speaks directly to today’s audiences. The music is composed and performed by Park Da-ul\, a geomungo artist celebrated for redefining the instrument’s expressive possibilities with his bold and innovative sound. The charged synergy between the dancers creates an electrifying experience\, delivering a surge of energy that reverberates through the entire stage. \nSaturday\, October 31\, 2026 7:30 PM \nSunday\, November 1\, 2026 5:00 PM \nAdmission: FREE (Pre-registration is Required)
