Daniel Dae Kim is starring in the Roundabout Theatre Company production.
Previews began September 13 for Roundabout Theatre Company's Broadway production of Yellow Faceby David Henry Hwang, and the first production photos are in. Opening night is set for October 1 at the Todd Haimes Theatre. The limited engagement will continue through November 24.
Directed by Leigh Silverman, Yellow Face stars Daniel Dae Kim as DHH, Kevin Del Aguila as Actor A, Ryan Eggold as Marcus, Francis Jue as HYH and Others, Marinda Anderson as Actor B, Greg Keller as Reporter/NWOAC, and Shannon Tyo as Leah and Others.
Inspired by real events, the playwright's fictionalized doppelgänger DHH (Kim) leads protests against yellowface casting in Miss Saigon, but then mistakenly casts a white actor as the Asian lead in one of his own plays.
