Chinglish

Aurora Fox Arts Center
9900 E. Colfax Avenue Aurora

Miscommunication leads to crossed signals and culture clashes in this whip-smart comedy from David Henry Hwang, the Tony and Obie Award-winning writer of M. Butterfly. Hwang's Chinglish is the snafu-filled story of a naïve American businessman who's trying to conduct an important deal in China. He quickly learns just how much he doesn't comprehend: His translators are unreliable, his consultant may be a fraud, and he's captivated by Xu, a beautiful, seemingly supportive government official who talks the talk ... though it's unclear what she's actually saying. Aurora Fox presents this regional premiere of Hwang's "deliriously funny" (Los Angeles Times) comedy about mistranslations and stranger-in-a-strange-land manners mishaps.
