SUMMARY:King of the Yees\, a play by Lauren Yee
DESCRIPTION:For nearly twenty years\, Larry Yee has been the heart and soul of the Yee Fung Toy Family Association\, a fraternal organization in San Francisco’s iconic Chinatown. But to his daughter Lauren\, a playwright living in New York\, the association is an obsolete relic of a vanishing world. When Larry suddenly disappears\, Lauren sets off on a wild quest to find him\, embarking on a surreal\, magical journey through the history and myths of her own lineage. KING OF THE YEES is a hilarious and heartfelt “kind of true” story by Signature resident artist Lauren Yee\, who turns her incisive comedic eye on what we inherit and what it means to truly be a Yee.

SUMMARY:Asian American Studies Matters
DESCRIPTION:In its 250-year existence\, the United States has welcomed\, nurtured\, while also barred and deported Americans who hail from all parts of the world. The Asian American experience is at once unique and familiar. From the first migrants to these shores in the late 1500s\, to the Chinese Exclusion Act in 1882\, to the incarceration of Japanese Americans during World War II\, to the banning and deporting of Asian migrants in the current day\, this complex history is often omitted from US education. This online event brings together Asian Americanists in conversation about the place of AAPI studies curriculum in current K-12 and college classrooms. How can we encourage teachers and schools (K-12 to college) to become more receptive to teaching AAPI histories and experiences?

SUMMARY:Vietnamese Boat People 2026 Story Slam
DESCRIPTION:Do you have a story only you can tell? Vietnamese Boat People is back at the Think!Chinatown Studio for their 7th Annual Story Slam—an evening of live storytelling\, community\, and connection. Starting as the Mỹ Việt Story Slam\, an online performance focusing on stories from the Vietnamese diaspora\, this collaboration with Think!Chinatown features in-person live performances welcoming storytellers from any culture. \nMaybe it’s the word that only exists in your native language\, the one you’ve never found a real translation for. Maybe it’s your name — shortened\, softened\, anglicized\, or swapped out entirely just to make a Tuesday easier — and you’re still not sure how you feel about that trade. \nThis year’s Story Slam theme is about living between two languages — the mistranslations\, the code-switching\, the words that don’t survive the crossing\, and get lost or found somewhere in between. It’s about the moment someone gets something wrong — your name\, your meaning\, your joke — and you let it slide\, or the moment you didn’t. It’s about the words\, names\, and phrases that somehow still trigger something in you\, no matter which language you’re standing in.

SUMMARY:Yiyun Li with Jennifer Egan: Music Against the Night
DESCRIPTION:Yiyun Li’s latest book is Music Against the Night. In Dublin\, as the 18th century nears its end\, a young virtuoso named John Field comes of age as his family nurtures visions of him becoming the next Mozart. His talent takes him to England\, France\, and Russia\, where he becomes a famous pianist and composes dreamy\, languorous melodies that enchant the night air. John calls them nocturnes\, but the prodigy who immortalizes them is Chopin. Oceans away in French India\, Adelaide Percheron has a startling rise of her own. Orphaned and raised by her grandmother\, Adelaide is driven by her secret love of music and a desire to see the world. She engineers her exodus\, escaping to Paris and later to Moscow\, as Napoleon’s army sets out to conquer the continent. As John and Adelaide each try to chart a path between talent and genius\, success and legacy\, profit and passion\, they must decide what\, and even who\, is worth sacrificing along the way. \nLi talks with Jennifer Egan about depicting two aspiring musicians in pursuit of success and bringing to life the sweep and dimension of the Romantic era.
