David Carradine not Chinese
Has anyone seen the current play "David Carradine not Chinese" at Kumu Kahua Theater? Tell me what you thought of it if you've seen it, but NO PLOT SPOILERS, please. I'm going on Sunday and will try to post a review here and/or at my blog.
Oh, since I'm new to the ohana here, I'll do a gratuitous link to my blog if you hadn't noticed my very amateur-looking button on the left sidebar.

Thanks, Ryan.
The play was hit-or-miss. I was actually sitting next to Darryl Lum (the playright!) which was a bit novel.
The jokes and pidgin were good, but the whole design of the play made it hard to critique the actors. The play is about a family preparing a bad performance at a community gathering, so if they perform poorly then I suppose that would mean they were true to the story. Clever, yeah?
