Marie Barlizo's latest drama, LUCKY, examines the harmful stereotype of Asians as the "model minority"-submissive, intelligent, well behaved-and the consequences of such simplistic preconceptions. This workshop production, inspired by a 2010 Toronto murder in the Asian community, world premieres at the Montreal's 2018 St-Ambroise Fringe Festival from June 1 to 17 at Too Close to the Sun Studio. It is directed by Sophie Gee, who directed last summer's Fringe hit, Pluck'd, which was later remounted as part of Centaur Theatre's WildSide Festival. LUCKY is an exploration of how fear of the 'other' affects the perception and treatment of immigrants, and how cultural expectations can affect happiness and self-esteem.
