I made a live alien musical about being Asian American for my directing class in 10 days!
Hi everyone! Wanted to share something i’ve been working on for the past ten days… I wrote an original story, posted a casting form, found my actors, choreographed dances to Yung Kai and Dabin, rehearsed four days straight, performed it Friday, and edited the whole week after. The show is called STARSCOUT and it is about an Asian American DJ who wakes up at 3AM to a UFO in his backyard and connects with the alien inside through dance before a galaxy patrol officer shows up and profiles the alien based on species stereotypes. I wrote that last part because I wanted to write something that puts culture on the forefront, especially since Asian Americans are still growing in the mainstream music industry. The show just went up on YouTube. I am really proud of it and I wanted to share it here because this community is the exact audience I made it for!
