Tiger Style!
About the Play
A witty and laugh-out-loud adventure about two siblings joining forces to overcome the outrageous pressures of adulthood.
Award-winning playwright Mike Lew (Teenage Dick) pens this hilarious comedy about Chinese American heritage and belonging that will leave you howling with laughter. Traveling the globe from California to Shenzhen, Tiger Style! uproariously tackles the immigrant experience, cultural stereotypes and what it really means to feel successful—and at home.
