Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning playwright Edward Albee will moderate a conversation with Tony Award-winning playwright David Henry Hwang at the Drama Book Shop on December 10 at 5:30 pm. The event is free and open to the public. Seating is on a first-come, first-served basis.

Albee and Hwang will be discussing the latter’s play Yellow Face, which has just been published in a new edition. Francis Jue, who won an Obie for his performance in Yellow Face, will do a reading. A book signing will follow.

Hwang’s play is a mock documentary that is inspired by the controversy of casting a white actor in the Asian lead in Miss Siagon.
