rasgos asiáticos/
asian traces

by Virginia Grise
winner of Pregones Asunción Playwrights Project competition.

rasgos asiáticos/asian traces is a memory play that takes place in the present tense as a story a Chicana of Chinese descent tells her lesbian lover of her family history. It is a courageous portrayal of four generations of women and the historic confluence of China, Mexico, and the U.S.

Drawing from memory and sensory experience, the Chicana protagonist and five other characters summon us into a world that is gentle and fierce in equal measure. A love story for a new generation!
