Hey, we're the Broadway cast

Hello, hello. Okay. Hey, this is the broad. Well, that's not right either. Lime. Uh-huh

Hey, we're the Broadway cast of Yellowface. Written by David Henry Huang

and directed by Lee Silverman. Today, we're playing fact or fiction. Yellowface is based on real things

that happen to our playwright David. But not everything is entirely true

So each of us is gonna say two facts about ourselves and one piece of us

fiction. Let's get started. I used to get paid to get naked frequently

Steve Sondheim once told me that I inspired him to write a song for Bernadette Peters

And three, I don't want to brag, but I was kind of a big deal at Ealdraim

That's true. What was the first one? The first one was the first one was the first one

was about me getting paid. He'd be naked frequently. A lot. I know that's true because I was the one day again

Thank you. Oh, wow. Huh. Okay

Stevenson, I'm the one paying you to get naked to talk about

I did a lot of productions of Kim Butterfly, where I had knit naked. Right. Yeah

And then when I was due, first, did the first revival of Pacific Overtures I was the boy in the tree and he was

having trouble writing a song for Burnett Peters in Sending the Park to George and

for Act 2 and he told me that after he saw me sing someone in a tree he went out to

the lobby and started sketching out children in art for her in sending the park to George Wow Detainee And I never studied drama I never went to theater class Yeah

Good job. That's wonderful. I know that. I thought you were gonna say

almost again, that you were like a go-go dancer. Yeah, I was kind of waiting for, like, a chanting team

Who would believe that? I would. I was stripping. What kind of club would that be

A great club. A great club. I've got one. One. I grew up in a haunted house

Scary? Maybe. Okay. Two. I have twice climbed a tree to rescue a cat

Different cats. Twice. Three. I have had chicken pox more than one time

These are challenging. I think it's three. I'll go with my gut

She rescued a cat three times. Yeah, I think it's something, it's a number of times she rescued a cat

That's a technical idea. It does not. Yes, I'm number two. Yeah, right. I'm going to go in one, just to be different
