The Drama Desk and Obie Award-winning Asian-American Off-Broadway MA-YI THEATER COMPANY presents the World Premiere of PEER GYNT & the Norwegian Hapa Band, a new rock music adaptation of the Ibsen classic. The production, featuring a multicultural cast of seven actor-musicians
THE PLAY: Peer is a brash young man on a journey to discover his ultimate self in a rock music odyssey about risk, reinvention and going roundabout. Ma-Yi Theater Company’s remaking of Henrik Ibsen’s classic 1876 verse drama asks what it means when we sacrifice everything to be most fully ourselves. With a new American President about to take office, PEER GYNT & the Norwegian Hapa Band is both a cautionary tale, and a reminder of how to remain true to ourselves. CAST:
