WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Set in and around a karaoke lounge, Karaoke Stories has everything but musical numbers. In its place are a dim-witted aspiring screenwriter and his equally dim-witted producer friend, whose latest project, inspired by the works of Quentin Tarantino, sets out to explore love from a man's perspective and ends up leading it's audience through a wacky, dreamlike world populated by a beauty queen, a despondent clown, a master sushi chef, a smattering of small-time thugs, some frat boys and a mermaid. The results are hilarious, bawdy, and of course, politically incorrect. It's Pulp Fiction meets Porky's, with an all Asian-American cast - and one token white guy.
There is an added performance on Saturday, August 30 at
2:00 PM.
