‘Yellow Face’ Broadway Review: Daniel Dae Kim Lets Loose In Farce That Unmasks Hypocrisy
Deadline's Broadway review of 'Yellow Face' starring Daniel Dae Kim.
But, of course, as both Daniel Dae Kim and Ryan Eggold, breaking the fourth wall, explain to the audience, the Marcus character is a fiction created just for Yellow Face, and we’re left to ponder what, exactly, its creation is meant to tell us about the real-life events we’re just seen re-created. Hwang seems to be suggesting that a line can indeed be drawn from the cultural tempests – too easily dismissed as matters of political correctness – to the real-world tragedies and obscenities that send innocent men to jail and early graves. Title: Yellow Face Venue: Broadway’s Todd Haimes Theatre Written By: David Henry Hwang Directed By: Leigh Silverman Cast: Daniel Dae Kim, Kevin Del Aguila, Ryan Eggold, Francis Jue, Marinda Anderson, Greg Keller, Shannon Tyo Running time: 1 hr 45 min (no intermission)
