Performance: My Own Story: Greatest Hits
Campus Location
Office/Remote Location
Description
Alex Luu returns to Las Vegas with a Greatest Hits edition of his popular My Own Story project. Asian American participants from local communities spend eight weeks working with Luu to develop raw, honest, autobiographical performances that come from the heart.
My Own Story: Greatest Hits will feature performances by Nalani Aki, Cathy Calabio, Niko Galindez, Krystine Kimes, and Zwei Sevin-Lagat.
“It’s transformative for me every time I teach/facilitate MOS, because with each group, I myself learn beautiful, tender, difficult stories, and I am literally a much more enriched human being after each MOS group.” (Luu, in conversation with Margaret Rhee for diaCRITICS.)
Performances will take place in the Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art auditorium on November 13 and 14 at 7 p.m. Admission is free. Please note: the show includes themes and language that may not be suitable for some people.
These performances of My Own Story are funded by the Mellon Foundation and supported by the Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art, UNLV’s College of Liberal Arts, and Neon Pacific Initiative.
