Jude Narita - Asian American - Stories Waiting To Be Told

Jude Narita's one woman play, STORIES WAITING TO BE TOLD celebrates Asian and Asian American women, as they redefine themselves within the American dream. The first generation women remember their homeland as they build their new lives in America. The second- and third-generations deal with contemporary America; the opportunities and the obstacles. Narita celebrates the differences and illuminates the universal humanity of us all. More info at www.judenarita.com
