Chinglish at Douglas Morrisson Theatre

In this "lost in translation", cross-cultural romcom, a desperate American businessman, Daniel, is trying to land the deal of a lifetime in China. The biggest lesson he learned right away - bring your own translator. Linguistic and romantic hilarity ensues as Daniel finds himself romantically entangled with Xi Yian, the beautiful woman on the other side of the negotations table.You will laugh out loud at this fun comedy that shows what can happen when cultures collide in a hilarious way. It's also a touching look at the value of collaboration and appreciation for cultural and linguistic differences.We are planning on creating a high quality filmed version of this show for on demand viewing.
