A smart, semi-autobiographical comedy about the masks we wear
When DHH—a Chinese American playwright and staunch activist—protests the casting of a white actor in Miss Saigon, he never imagines he’ll make the same mistake himself. But after accidentally casting a white actor in the lead Asian role of his own play, he scrambles to cover his tracks, spinning an increasingly ridiculous web of half-truths, media frenzy, and personal contradictions. Pulitzer Prize finalist Yellow Face is a laugh-out-loud mockumentary that skewers the worlds of theatre, identity politics, and public image with razor-sharp wit. Fresh off a thrilling Broadway run, David Henry Hwang’s hilarious and thought-provoking Tony-nominated play comes to OSF in a new production directed by May Adrales (Vietgone).

A major theatre arts organization, OSF offers a diversity of plays as well as events and activities to enhance your overall experience. We are a not-for-profit professional theatre founded in 1935. Our 2022 season will run from April through December, and we have three theatres: our two indoor stages—the Angus Bowmer Theatre and the Thomas Theatre—and our flagship outdoor Allen Elizabethan Theatre, which opens in early June and runs through mid-October. We offer up to 8 different plays that include works by Shakespeare as well as a mix of classics, musicals, and world-premiere plays. And our O! digital stage features groundbreaking online productions, films, immersive experiences, and art. As of January 2022, OSF is in the process of finalizing our new organizational strategic plan, which will outline and clarify our mission and values. Also, our website is undergoing an accessibility scan to ensure that all of our patrons can find tickets and learn more about the changes we're making to our programming, community engagement, and IDEA work.
