Yes, there's wit and humor and a lot of sly-side glances but there's also heartbreak. The part about "carrying your American ID with you wherever you go" is currently a truism in America today. As our country slides back into putting people in racial boxes (and arresting them for it), it is all too timely.

This monologue may have been written during the Covid pandemic, but it’s just as relevant today. Lucy Wang uses a variety of Asian stereotypes to call out racism in this no-holds-barred satire. Wonderful opportunity for an Asian American actor to nail an audition while making some important points.

08.11.25 - Lucy Wang lets you have it with both barrels here with this darkly funny screed about being Asian American in our currently-having-a-meltdown melting pot of a country. Between coronavirus and the political virus diving us up, things can seem sickly bleak. But just take Lucy's spot-on funny advice and you'll breeze right through your day, no matter where you'll get (possibly) locked up? quarantined? separated? You get the point.
