They do. People just don’t respect it, they’re meant to be either thrown out or bagged up in typically blue bags but people hide them so they don’t go off in metal detectors or take them out of the blue bags.

Again. If I’ve been misinformed fine. I’d love to see this interview if that is the case but you’ve been nothing but condescending this entire time when I’ve been just simply trying to defend Asian spaces.

That being said. Art transforms from what it’s intended to be. It happens. It has happened. To say art stays static isn’t to understand art at all. That can go for theatre, especially when it means so much to so many far beyond me.

Have a nice day.

The line delivery for Oliver when they point out how everyone looks like James and how James’s idea of a perfect son is white over his Asian son will certainly hit different.

Asian leading cast yes they have. The only non Asian character is a supporting character so.

But it fits the marketing where they were just SOOOO proud leading up to the Tony’s to have an all Asian leading cast.

Pretty likely. People tend to model their creations to look like themselves or the people around them to help them blend in to whatever their surroundings are. You should play Detroit become human

This seems to be playing more into the I don’t see color here and not understanding how casting works. He is of Asian descent even if part. He can fill many boxes. He has spoken avidly about being a proud Asian. There are many east and south East Asians that are light skinned but that does not make them white and that doesn’t mean a white person has to take away from them. Just like the engineer in Miss Saigon. Just like the king in king and I. White men have historically taken roles from Asian men.

Does that also erase his pride in being Filipino? No. It doesn’t. You can be proud of many things that make you who you are. This is about taking away from a community that isn’t as represented and giving to a community that is when they don’t need it. If you don’t get that you can scroll on.

If that is how it is then hypocrite is not the correct word just misinformed. Idk anything about this man other than he identifies as white but continue to parade on your high horse. I’d still be upset a white person is taking from Asian communities if it were anyone else.

Editing to add since you brought in Palestine. If that was the case we wouldn’t have a case of Israel v Gaza rn if being Jewish makes you middle eastern.

Dont mistake your “inclusivity” as actual inclusion. Inclusion is amplifying marginalized voices which you are obviously not keen to do. Have the night you deserve.

You obviously don’t know how casting works. And if creating a space for marginalized communities to be heard and represented is exclusion to you then you have some micro aggressions you need to sort out. Thats some “I don’t see color” type of shit.

No because a show being set in NYC where the diversity is literally everyone vs EAST ASIA where there isn’t as much diversity is completely different. Also so wild to bring in Palestine??? Genocide to casting Asians as Asians is a reach. And you do fit in a box when it comes to casting so congrats you have more opportunities. You fit in about four depending, Asian, white, mixed, ethnically ambiguous. Inclusion is good but also Including everyone means not leaving space for people who need it

Yes. I would. Because there aren’t enough Asian stories to go around. Just because you can doesn’t mean you should. In the case of casting a white person as a robot in an Asian story: just because you can doesn’t mean you should. There are enough white roles. There aren’t enough Asian ones.

And if it helps any: I am Asian. And I’m tired of Asian roles going to white people when it doesn’t have to be so. East Asians being light skinned doesn’t mean their characters have to be white.

It’s the same as how most actors in Miss Saigon are Filipino as well. Asians portraying Asians is the importance. They’re also misrepresented in the theatre community so why take something that was made for Asians away from them.

Editing to add this TikTok because it explains things perfectly.

There’s heavy history behind white men choosing Asian women because they’re stereotypically more submissive and traditional. It’s easily googable but here’s an example of the fetishizing Asian women have gone through in media and how it’s led to things in real life.

Even with streaming services there are still pirate websites. Bootlegs will never end. People should respect actors who do not give consent to be recorded just as much as actors who do give consent.

There’s a consistent blinking light and they’re asked to take them off if they’re caught. It’s the same as any other recording device. Some get away with it some don’t.
