Take any Chinese last name, and there exists a corresponding family association with branches in each major American city. For nearly twenty years, playwright Lauren Yee's father Larry has been a driving force in the Yee Family Association. Until now. Amid a backdrop of crumbling Chinatowns and all-too-lifelike museums, Lauren races through history, space, and the fourth wall to find her father in this joyride through San Francisco's disappearing past.
Tim Dang (Nothing is the Same, 2018; The Joy Luck Club, 2019), Artistic Director Emeritus of East West Players, returns to Sierra Madre Playhouse to direct King of the Yees.
