Direct from its sold-out run at Chicago\u2019s Goodman Theatre, Chinglish has made its way to Broadway. (Translation: Get your tickets fast \u2013 this one\u2019s going to be hot!) Tony Award\u00ae winner David Henry Hwang (M. Butterfly) returns to Broadway with CHINGLISH, a new comedy about the misadventures of miscommunication.<\/p>\n
Directed by OBIE Award winner Leigh Silverman (From Up Here, Well) Chinglish is the story of an American businessman desperate to launch a new enterprise in China. There are only three things standing in his way: He can’t speak the language. He can’t learn the customs. And he’s falling in love with the one woman he absolutely can’t have.<\/p>\n
Chinglish is the hilarious new play where most everything gets lost in translation.<\/p>\n
\u201cFour stars! The Chinese tiger roars, American business trembles. David Henry Hwang\u2019s best work since \u2018M. Butterfly.\u2019\u201d \u2013 Chris Jones, Chicago Tribune<\/p>\n
\u201cChinglish has characters, not clich\u00e9s \u2013 the Chinese aren\u2019t worker bees, the American isn\u2019t an arrogant idiot.\u201d \u2013 Neil Steinberg, Chicago Sun Times<\/p>\n
\u201cSplendidly savvy! It\u2019s like the \u2018Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon\u2019 of American theater.\u201d \u2013 Steven Oxman, Variety<\/p>\n
\u201cOne of the funniest plays in memory. I haven\u2019t heard an audience laugh this much in years.\u201d – Neil Steinberg, Chicago Sun-Times<\/p>\n
