CONFESSIONS OF A LAZY HMONG WOMAN

Written by May Lee-Yang
Directed by Robert Farid Karimi
Performed by May Lee-Yang and Phasoua Vang

Lazy Hmong Women aren’t supposed to exist. They are like vegan omelets, virgin Long Island Iced Teas or poor people of color who are Republicans. See how one woman didn’t do the dishes and defied the odds.

Ten Reasons Why I’d Be a Bad Porn Star

The show was featured at The 3rd National Asian American Theater Conference and Festival in Los Angeles, CA 90012.

About the Show
In Ten Reasons Why I’d Be a Bad Porn Star, May Lee-Yang uses storytelling, on-site sex toy demonstrations, and some cultural competency training to explore marriage, porn, romance novel fantasies, and how to talk about sex in the Hmong culture (a definite no-no).

Show Dates:
Thursday, June 23, 2011
Saturday, June 25, 2011

About the Sugar Daddy: This show was originally developed at the Illusion Theater’s Light’s Up Program and the Art Farm in Marquette, Nebraska through a grant from the Midwestern Voices and Visions Award.
