Reviews: The Chinese Lady, American Stage (St. Petersburg, FL)

I stress anyone that is reading this sentence to venture to American Stage to see THE CHINESE LADY, to learn a forgotten soul and an entire neglected history…

It’s a two-person show, and the gripping, searing performances at the heart of this are unforgettable, to put it mildly

Equally as strong is Jacob Yeh as Atung… His monologue about halfway through the show, about a dream of his, is one of the show’s highlights. It’s gorgeously written and a home run when delivered by Yeh.

Yeh is also outstanding in his interpretation of President Andrew Jackson

Jacob Yeh turns in a gorgeous performance as Atung, the dutiful servant who both pines for and pities the beautiful woman from his native land.

…accompanied by her translator, Atung (played with great subtlety by Jacob Yeh)…

She watches the watchers, commenting on the boorishness of the American shopper and wondering at the crudeness of President Andrew Jackson (both played by the versatile Yeh).
