CROSSING BORDERS READING: China Dreams or The Conservation of Parity

Crossing Borders presents China Dreams, or the Conservation of Paritywritten by Stefani Kuo and directed by Nicholas Polonio. The play explores the life and work of physicist Wu Chien-Shiung, who was the only Chinese woman that helped create the atomic bomb in America. 

Over the past decade, more immigrants have migrated to the United States from Asia than from any other region in the world, making Asians the country’s fastest-growing immigrant population. In celebration of the Immigrant Heritage Month, American Dream Redux and Asian American Arts Alliance (A4) co-present Crossing Borders, a play-reading series dedicated to showcasing the works of Asian immigrant playwrights in New York City.

Crossing Borders showcases the work of three Asian immigrant playwrights, Dipika Guha, Stefani Kuo, and Zhu Yi, whose work explores the shared yet complex immigrant experiences through theater. The plays are directed by Seonjae Kim, Ryan Dobrin, and Nicholas Polonio.

This event is free and open to the public. RSVP required. We’ll send the Zoom meeting link to all registered attendees. RSVP here.
