PlayFestival of Food Plays

The Asian American Playwright Collaborative’s PlayFestival of Food Plays highlights original works by Boston-area Asian American and Asian Pacific Islander  playwrights, actors, directors, and other theater artists.  This festival is made possible by funding from the Bob Jolly Trust and the Boston Foundation.

Whether characters are preparing food for family or friends, having heated conversations over a meal, learning about unusual ingredients, or trying to order their favorite foods at a local dim sum place, the eight short plays presented this year all explore how we use food to navigate, nourish, and sometimes negate our relationships.

The plays will be followed by a Q&A.

About AAPC:

The Asian American Playwright Collaborative is a group of Boston-based playwrights who have banded together to raise awareness about the breadth and depth of new work by theater artists who are informed by a complex and multi-layered identity, but who also just happen to be Asian American.
