WHAT IS IT ABOUT?

Soul Samurai by Qui Nguyen is directed by Robert Ross Parker. Cooler than Kill Bill, hotter than Shaft! The OBIE Award-winning Ma-Yi Theater Company teams up with the NYIT Award-winning Vampire Cowboys for Soul Samurai, the story of Dewdrop and her fight through the mean streets of post-apocalyptic Brooklyn. After avenging her lover's murder in the heart of Coney Island, Dewdrop now must make it back home to the L.E.S. before the shoguns of Kings County find her. In a play that mixes hip-hop culture, blaxploitation, and the martial arts, this production dials it back old school with a seventies-inspired samurai story. This is one slick slice with a sharp sword and a score to settle!

Review

Soul Samurai

By Dan Bacalzo · Feb 19, 2009 · New York City

Qui Nguyen's tale of a woman warrior out for revenge is a wildly funny, action-packed delight.

Soul Samurai Packs a Whallop - The Best $20 You'll Ever Spend by
We needed a memorable experience for our out-of-town guests and Soul Samurai fit the bill. Five young performers acted their guts out for two hours. The fighting scenes were frequent and fantastic. The script, though still in need of polish, was humorous and cleverer than most. The music 1970s/early 80s funk, r&b moved the story forward in interesting ways. I am taking everyone I know to see it... I am now a Vampire Cowboys fan. Go in expecting a lot from this low-budget off-off Broadway show. It delivers. - Sarah. R.
