1834. A 14 year old Afong Moy brought to New York Harbor from Guangdong Province. Immediately, she is put on display for the American public as “The Chinese Lady. ” For the next half century, believing herself an ambassador to life in her native China, she performs under the gaze of curious white people. Lloyd Suh’s poetic and subversively comedic tale offers a portrait of the United States, giving voice to our country’s hidden history.
The Chinese Lady is produced in partnership with CHUANG Stage.
