Miss Saigon Performs July 30-August 8, 2004 Local Theater Company Offers First Non-Equity Production in U.S FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Tegan McLane, Director of Marketing and Programs (408) 288-5437 x318 [email protected] MISS SAIGON PERFORMS JULY 30-AUGUST 8, 2004 LOCAL THEATER COMPANY OFFERS FIRST NON-EQUITY PRODUCTION IN U.S. SAN JOSE, CA – (July 15, 2004) Children’s Musical Theater San Jose, chosen as the first non-Equity theater company in the United States granted the rights to produce Miss Saigon, opens its much-anticipated production July 30-August 8, 2004, at the Montgomery Theater in downtown San Jose (corner of Market and San Carlos streets). Tickets are now on sale to the public for $18 adults, $12 children 12 and under. Miss Saigon is sponsored by Viet Mercury and is part of the CMT Summer Series, sponsored by the San Jose Mercury News. Set against the backdrop of the Vietnam War, Miss Saigon is the dramatic love story of Chris, an American Marine, and Kim, an innocent young Vietnamese girl who takes a job serving soldiers in a bar to survive after her entire family has been killed. Their romance is cut short by the fall of Saigon, and a reunion between the married Chris and Kim, several years after the fall ends in Kim’s tragic suicide. But Miss Saigon is perhaps best known for its showy special effects, including a helicopter landing on stage to evacuate the Americans. Director Kevin Hauge noted that the Miss Saigon rehearsal process provided a great learning opportunity for CMT Mainstage performers. Not only did the performers have to learn very challenging music and strenuous choreography; they also did research on the Vietnam War and Vietnamese culture. Performers heard stories firsthand from parents and other adults who were involved, including local-resident Minh-Ngoc Nguyen, an ESL instructor and the mother of a cast member who came to the U.S. after the fall of Saigon. Nguyen’s son, Julien Nguyen Christensen, plays the role of Thuy, the young Vietnamese man whom Kim was promised to marry and who later becomes an officer in the North Vietnam army. Mother and son agree that Julien’s being cast as Thuy stirred up a painful and moving personal history. However, Nguyen is happy and proud that a piece of Vietnam history and culture is being brought to life at the Montgomery Theater by the talented staff and Mainstage artists of CMT. Most local Vietnamese have strong opposition to North Vietnam, and some have family members who fought on either side of the conflict. “We are so honored that the publishing house selected CMT from the more than 7,000 community theaters in the country. Miss Saigon is a difficult show for any theater company to produce, and the fact that we were selected speaks to the outstanding reputation of this company, of CMT Artistic Director Kevin Hauge and of the amazing pool of young talent here,” said Executive Director Jennifer Hull. Hauge directs and choreographs the show, with musical and vocal direction by Mason Kimont. The cast consists of nearly a hundred 15- to 20-year-olds, including a number of older CMT performers who are back for the summer from their studies at prestigious theater programs such as Manhattan School of Music, New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts and Boston Conservatory. “They bring an incredible energy to the production. It’s wonderful to see how they have matured in their art since last summer,” Hauge said. “There is no question that these young actors, who are the same age as the characters they play, are better suited to the roles than many older actors.” San Jose State University theater arts professor Jim Culley has designed the set to create an abstract, cinematic feeling, using panels of Venetian blinds that can be adjusted to achieve dramatic lighting effects in combination with Ethan Hoernamann’s lighting design for the show. CMT’s version will have a helicopter. Performances are: Friday, July 30 at 7 p.m.; Saturday, July 31 at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m.; Sunday, August 1 at 1 p.m. and 6 p.m.; Thursday, August 5 at 7 p.m.; Friday, August 6 at 7 p.m.; Saturday, August 7 at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m.; and Sunday, August 8 at 1 p.m. For more information or to purchase tickets, please visit the CMTSJ web site at www.cmtsj.org. Or phone the CMT Box Office at 408.288.5437. Tickets may also be purchased in person at the CMT Box Office, 1401 Parkmoor Avenue (at Meridian), San Jose, Monday through Friday, 10 a.m.- 5 p.m. or the Montgomery Theater one hour prior to performances. ###.

    DER VIETNAMESISCHE BUDDHISMUS IN DEN USA — Der Stellenwert des Glaubens in der neuen Heimat — Von der Gemeinsamen Fakultät für Geistes- und Sozialwissenschaften der Universität Hannover zur Erlangung des Grades eines Doktors der Philosophie (Dr. phil.) genehmigte Dissertation von Loc Ho geboren am 1. Januar 1971, in Saigon 2003 Referent: Prof. Dr. Dr. Peter Antes Korreferent: Prof. Dr. Martin Baumann Tag der Promotion: 3. Juli 2003 3 Abstract Gab es vor 1975 in den USA nur wenige Vietnamesen - vorwiegend Studenten an den Universitäten -, so begann ihre Zahl dort mit dem Ende des Vietnamkrieges und dem gleichzeitigen Beginn der Vorherrschaft der kommunistischen Machthabern in ganz Vietnam plötzlich sprunghaft anzusteigen, denn viele Menschen flohen nun aus ihrem Heimatland. Das Schicksal der Boat People bewegte die Weltöffentlichkeit. Viele der Flüchtlinge gelangten in die Vereinigten Staaten, wo sie mit größtenteils ungewohnten Lebensumständen zurecht kommen mussten. Der hektische und konsumorientierte „American Way of Life“ unterschied sich sehr von der zum großen Teil buddhistisch geprägten gelassenen Lebensweise in Vietnam. Innerhalb eines Vierteljahrhunderts haben die vietnamesischen Buddhisten, die seit 1975 mit Hilfe verschiedener humanitärer Hilfsprogramme in die USA gelangten und dort die überwiegende Mehrheit der Flüchtlinge aus ihrer Heimat stellten, mehr als 250 buddhistische Institutionen - Klöster, Pagoden und Tempel - errichtet sowie viele buddhistische Gemeinden und Organisationen gegründet. Der vietnamesische Buddhismus ist in den Vereinigten Staaten nur eine der vielen Glaubensrichtungen, welche von Einwanderern und Flüchtlingen in den vergangenen Jahrhunderten mitgebracht worden sind. Der Frage, welche Rolle der Buddhismus im Leben seiner Anhänger unter den früheren Gegebenheiten in Vietnam hatte und - im Vergleich dazu - unter den neuen Umständen in den USA hat, wird in der vorliegenden Arbeit ein breiter Raum eingeräumt, da sie für die Zukunft des vietnamesischen Buddhismus in den USA von immenser Bedeutung ist.

  • Will Asian Women Call a Telephone Health Information Service?
    S. Davis / Californian Journal of Health Promotion 2003, Volume 1, Issue 1, 103-108 Will Asian Women Call a Telephone Health Information Service? Sharon Watkins Davis Northern California Cancer Center Abstract AAPI women have the lowest breast cancer screening rates of all U.S. women. Barriers to screening include access, culture, and language. Previous focus group studies have shown little use of telephone hotlines among Asians. However, this report indicates that media promotions in Cantonese, Mandarin, Vietnamese, and Korean can result in a major increase in calls to a California statewide telephone service. Calls from women speaking Asian languages to the California Breast Cancer Early Detection Program Consumer 800 Number increased from an average of 24 per month to 576 in June 2001 in response to paid newspaper and radio advertisements in Los Angeles, San Diego, and the San Francisco Bay Area. © 2003 Californian Journal of Health Promotion.

Keywords: Asian women, cancer, primary prevention, early detection Background and Significance cultural belief that if nothing is wrong, no tests Breast cancer incidence and mortality rates are should be done.

  • The Contributions of Immigrants in Santa Clara County
    THE CONTRIBUTIONS OF IMMIGRANTS IN SANTA CLARA COUNTY 1. THEORETICAL BACKGROUND Ever since the first European settlers started coming to this land, immigration has been a very important issue. Even though the US is clearly a country of immigrants, anti- immigrant sentiments have a regular part of US history. There are indications that the first European settlers enforced the ideology that this was not the land of native peoples but the land of their own.1 It was considered that whoever arrived several months or years before others had the right to view those “others” who arrived later as immigrants, and a group that should enjoy less rights. Although non-white immigrants have faced much more difficult challenges, we could say that whether we think about Western Europeans, Eastern Europeans, Latino, Asian or African immigrants, every group at the time of arrival faced a certain amount of xenophobia and artificially constructed “nativism.”2 Besides, many immigrants have thought about themselves as sojourners (temporary workers, temporary inhabitants), and this has been complicating the reality and serving as means for keeping sojourners even lower on the ladder of non-residents and non-citizens. The myth of Asian immigrants as sojourners vs. European immigrants as settlers was used to intensify exploitation and preserve a racial hierarchy. This is documented vividly by Ronald Takaki.3 The myths about immigrants are embodied in social psychology, basis of the political, economic and legal system, dominant public discourse and even in social sciences. On one hand, anti-immigrant orientation in the county of immigrants seems paradoxical and even illogical.
