A new play explores transracial adoption through Chinese mythology and Shakespeare

Produced by CHUANG Stage, playwright Brandon Zang's "Nüwa in Fairyland” puts a meta spin on “A Midsummer Night’s Dream.” The play runs May 2

“Nüwa in Fairyland” by Zang, a Chinese Canadian playwriting MFA student at Boston University, puts a meta spin on the Shakespearean classic. Benji (Trevyn Wong) is a Chinese transracial adoptee cast as Puck in “Midsummer” at his high school. He starts channeling Puck through method acting strategies provided by his drama teacher. But in the magical world of the fairies, Benji finds himself face-to-face with Nüwa (Bowen Huang), the Chinese goddess who created humans. Through his interactions with Nüwa, Benji grapples with his racial identity and background.

I'm stumping for my friend's play, which I have seen through many drafts and readings over the last decade.

Do you like t4t romance? Do you like queer, jazz age shenanigans and comedy? Do you like to see new arts get made and have all involved paid for it?

Please consider backing Let's Misbehave - they're so close to the goal!

I'M GOING TO BE IN A SHOW! AND YOU CAN GET A $13 VIRTUAL TICKET FROM ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD!

*Pops head out of hellish book deadline, while I am ALSO in the hospital caring for a loved one in the ICU, to shout about this show and hope you'll help crowdfund it!*

When I joined the Actor's Union, Actor's Equity, I promised myself I'd only do full productions I was really passionate about while I spent the bulk of my time and energy on my books. Well, the time has come for a one of those productions! And we really need your support because my *being* Union costs the team a lot more than if they didn't honor my status. I am so grateful that a brand new company founded without any institutional support, wants to pay equitable rates.

LET'S MISBEHAVE is a Jazz-age romp of a play about a group of marginalized identities trying to find their way in a restrictive, often dangerous world. This is a sweet (sometimes saucy) play about love and acceptance, written by a trans playwright about queer and trans identities and their allies. THE COUNTESS, my role, is a delightfully batty force-of-nature who protects her little community of darlings in the only way she knows how: by throwing massive parties.

This is a brand-new production company doing grass-roots theater, rather than relying on a specific institution, this team took matters creatively into their own hands and we need your help to fund it! We're Kickstarting now, and you can pledge at all kinds of levels! This is A GREAT way to celebrate Pride Month, by directly supporting LGBTQIA+ identities and their allies, all of whom will be paid a union and union-comparable rate to do this show, and YOU can be in the audience! Win-win!

Please share? Thank you! Happy Pride!
