The talented folks at the National Asian Artists Project (NAAP) brought Where We Are to life this June! I was genuinely spoiled in the care of Brian Jose (Director, also Brilliant Dude) and Ruiran Xun (Music Director, also Brilliant Lady), and am obsessed with this dreamy cast (Christine Toy Johnson, Kennedy Kanagawa, Teresa Attridge, Danny Bae, Elaine Baez, Jenelle Catherina, Cole Hong Sisser, Kevin Shiu, Vikas Venu, and James Wong).
Lighting by Adrien Yuen & photos by Eric Bondoc. And Baayork Lee at the helm?! The coolest. More info here!
Debuting my work at Joe’s Pub has been a longtime dream of mine, and I’m incredibly grateful for the brilliant team that came together to make it happen this January!!!
Each song in WHERE WE ARE is inspired by a map collected by the Hand Drawn Map Association. Full of humor, heartbreak, and humanity, the song cycle spans the physical and emotional terrain of characters caught between Point A and Point B.
WHERE WE ARE was brought to life by the unparalleled Claire Kwon, Sarah Dacey Charles, David Baida, and Stefan Schallack, directed by Jess Slaght, music directed by Andrea Yohe, orchestrated by Shane Dittmar, and accompanied by Sarah Fazendin (violin), Caitlin Thomas (cello), Katty Mayorga (guitar), Britton Matthews (percussion), and Andrea Yohe (piano). I’ll never forget how surreal it was to watch these gorgeous creatives breathe life into the project. <3
