More “Yellow Face” coverage
Today’s LA Daily News has a nice piece by Evan Henerson (who for years has kept theatre coverage an important part of the paper) profiling David Henry Hwang and his new play, which I keep raving about. You can read the profile here.
And Gregory Rodriguez’ op ed in today’s LA Times remarks upon how the context of the play has changed in the 17 years since the events that shaped it. Well worth reading.

I found the best line in G. Rodriguez’s piece to be Hwang’s quote ” “If you think you already have the answer or the truth, it keeps you from learning.”
Sorry we won’t have the opportunity to see this production before we leave the country. I found the playright’s comments in the editorial very insightful.
