Roundabout Theatre Company's upcoming Broadway production of Yellow Face by David Henry Hwang has found its complete cast!
Directed by Leigh Silverman, Yellow Face will star the previously announced Daniel Dae Kim as DHH. Newly announced to be joining him are Kevin Del Aguila as Actor A, Ryan Eggold as Marcus, Francis Jue as HYH and Others, Marinda Anderson as Actor B, Greg Keller as Reporter/NWOAC, and Shannon Tyo as Leah and Others.
Inspired by real events, the playwright's fictionalized doppelgänger DHH (Kim) leads protests against yellowface casting in Miss Saigon, but then mistakenly casts a white actor as the Asian lead in one of his own plays.
Yellow Face will begin previews September 13, with opening night set for October 1 at the Todd Haimes Theatre. The production is a limited engagement through November 24.
The creative team will include set designer Arnulfo Maldonado, costume designer Anita Yavich, lighting designer Lap Chi Chu, sound designer Caroline Eng, projection designer Yee Eun Nam, and composer Kate Marvin.
Yellow Face is made possible by the Champions for Inclusive Theatre and Roundabout’s Forward Fund.
