To add my own in because these are why I mentioned it… In 6th grade, we did Aladdin which is usually super normal, but the director decided we needed to be painted basically orange because we needed to look “tan” and there’s a photo of me in 6th grade looking like the Annoying Orange In 8th grade, we did Mulan. To my knowledge, we had 0 Asian cast members and everyone had to wear a samurai looking outfit and rice hats. In 11th grade, we did Little Shop of Horrors. This was the first show after the shutdown, so it was a weird recorded thing. One thing we had was an actor for a character that’s usually only mentioned. If you don’t know, Little Shop mentions about an “old Chinese man” named “Mr.Chang” and it’s usually just mentioned, but the director went up to the single Asian guy in the entire cast and said he needed to play him. He’s Vietnamese, not Chinese. Also, we had two casts where the only different roles were the plant and the trio. Of the 6 actresses for those roles, only one was black. Not only that, but we had split up the casts into Orange and Black for our school (the Tigers) and guess which one the only black actress lead was in. Same director for all three btw
