About this Event
Joy by Lexi Thammavong
Directed by Cat Ramirez
Monday June 10 at 7pm - Asian Arts Initiative, Studio D
Joy swears—no, vows— that today is the day: The day she ends it all. She also said that yesterday, but today, she means business. Today, she’s hiked her way to her favorite spot in the Pennsylvanian woods. Joy has decided that this will be the perfect place to die— until a dirty hippie with a sunny disposition stumbles on her path and ruins her plans.
Presented by Philadelphia Asian Performing Artists and Asian Arts Initiative
ABOUT PAPA. Philadelphia Asian Performing Artists (PAPA) is a member-based community and arts organization that provides wholistic artist care for 100+ Asian and Asian American artists in the Philadelphia area. Through social events, residency and professional development programs, grassroots organizing, and performance opportunities, we hope to empower our members and reflect the greater diversity of this city and its stories.
ABOUT THE PLAYWRIGHTS PROJECT. PAPA Playwrights Project raises up the voices of emerging Asian and Asian American playwrights in our city with Lead Artist, Stephanie Kyung Sun Walters. Over the course of a 2 year residency, our playwrights hone their craft through workshops, readings, professional development opportunities, and guidance from a lead artist. PAPA Playwrights meet monthly to share drafts, work with local dramaturgs, and discuss local and national theatre. They engage with the new play development process and culminate with a reading of their work.
