by BWW News Desk - October 05, 2022

Review: VIETGONE at Guthrie Theater
by Jared Fessler - September 29, 2022
What did our critic think of VIETGONE at Guthrie Theater? When Saigon falls in 1975, Quang and Tong, two Vietnamese refugees separated from their previous partners, have a sexy meet-cute in Arkansas that promptly becomes a no-strings-attached relationship to pass the time. Living in the land of 'cheeseburgers, waffle fries and cholesterol' (aka America) proves to be an intoxicating adventure that leads Quang and Tong to question their futures, both together and in their new country. Part history play and part memoir, this whip-smart comedy is punctuated with flashbacks and bursts of rap songs, all while giving unabashed reflections on American culture and offering a human-centered view of the Vietnam War and its aftermath.
