Chris Grace: As Scarlett Johansson at Kennedy Center Family Theater

Chris Grace, Jerry from NBC’s Superstore and “America’s 88th-most beloved Chinese actor” (his own words), celebrates the life of the greatest Asian-American actor of all time: Scarlett Johansson. Inspired by the actress’s infamous starring role in the 2017 Ghost in the Shell, Chris Grace: As Scarlett Johansson ponders the relationship between art and identity in a uniquely deadpan and intricate way. Exploring both actors’ biographies through stand-up comedy, stage combat, and the songs of Tom Waits, this show reimagines what is and isn’t possible—or appropriate—in the life of an artist.
