I AM MULAN at UHM Kennedy Theatre

Written and Directed by MFA candidate Elizabeth Ung

The world knows the tale, the myth, the legend, the ballad of Mulan. But does Mulan know Mulan? Incarnated into five distinct personalities, an ensemble of “Mulans” must find a way out of Dìyù (Hell)… and from each other. A confrontation, an introspection, and a deconstruction of the Chinese folkloric heroine, I AM MULAN is a world-premiere existential dramedy by Elizabeth Ung that examines what it means to embrace and reject one’s identity and legacy.

This is a multi-lingual production featuring English, Mandarin, and Cantonese languages.

Content Advisories: Strong language, racial and gender microaggressions, references to suicide and violence, and suggestive sexual themes.
