2. Nüwa in Fairyland

Written by Brandon Zang

Directed by Carla Mirabal Rodríguez

Boston Center for the Arts, Plaza Black Box Theatre (539 Tremont St, Boston, MA)

After getting cast as Puck in his high school production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Benji dives deep into method acting to prepare for his role. In the enchanted forest of foggy adolescence, he runs into a stranger: the Chinese creator goddess Nüwa ().

Does she hold the key to his birthplace as a transracial adoptee? Or will Benji never escape Fairyland? Conceived by Chinese Canadian playwright Brandon Zang, Nüwa in Fairyland fuses Shakespeare's charm with Chinese folklore into a coming-of-age tale.
