  • MAN of GOD Program.Indd
    Welcome to East West Players (EWP) and the world premiere of Man of God by Anna Moench, directed by Jesca Prudencio. The best art shifts our perceptions and allows us to see the world through someone else’s eyes. The fi rst time I read Man of God, the play led me to consider what it is like to be constantly subjected to the male gaze. Over the last two years, we have Photo by Mike Palma. seen global movements like #MeToo and #TimesUp challenge institutionalized sexism and pave the way for engaging and meaningful conversations about the devastating impact of sexual violence, particularly towards women. These movements feel like a watershed moment, but there is still much work to be done. Man of God is wildly funny, shocking, and harrowing. Like the best works of art, it challenges us to do better. Thank you to the amazing cast and crew that have helped bring this production to life. It’s rare to have an entire cast making their EWP debuts, and it is my honor to introduce you to Katherine, Michele, Roy, SunHee, and Sandy. WELCOME Many thanks to director Jesca Prudencio; the talented design team of Justin, Rebecca, Howard, Alexis, and Allison; fi ght director Andy; and a special thanks to our stage management team of Brandon and Lydia. For fi ve decades, EWP has created opportunities for Asian American artists to tell their stories. We are the longest- running professional theater of color in the United States, and the largest creator of Asian American performance work. No other theater has featured more Asian Pacifi c Islander (API) talent center stage than EWP.

Pictures Italia Note di produzione Introduzione “Se una squadra qualsiasi vince un campionato world series, è un cosa bella per la squadra. Si beve champagne, si ricevono gli anelli dei campioni (N.d.T. i world series ring sono anelli particolari che vengono donati ai giocatori che vincono). Se, invece, vinciamo noi, con il nostro budget, con questa squadra…cambieremo per sempre le regole del gioco. Ed è questo quello che voglio. Voglio dare un vero significato a quello che sto facendo”. L’Arte di Vincere della Columbia Pictures è basato sulla storia vera di Billy Beane (Brad Pitt) . All’inizio della carriera, la sua aspirazione era quella di diventare un eroe del baseball ma, dopo numerose delusioni e fallimenti sul campo, Beane decide di rivolgere la sua forte natura competitiva al management. Durante la stagione 2002, Billy si trova ad affrontare una difficilissima situazione: la sua squadra, la Oakland A’s ha perso (nuovamente) i giocatori migliori che passano a club più importanti dietro offerta di salari enormi: Billy è costretto, quindi, a ricostruire la sua squadra avendo a disposizione un terzo della busta paga per i suoi giocatori.
