Cast Announced for Vineyard/Naked Angels Premiere of Zayd Dohrn’s Outside People

Matthew Dellapina, Nelson Lee, Li Jun Li, and Sonequa Martin-Green will star in the world premiere production of Zayd Dohrn’s Outside People, co-produced by Vineyard Theatre and Naked Angels. Evan Cabnet will direct the production, which will play the Vineyard, December 21-January 29, with an opening on January 10.

Set in modern-day Beijing, Outside People is the story of a young American man (Dellapina), who falls in love with a young Chinese woman (Li). But as his eyes open to the subtle social, political and economic forces that inform their relationship, he must confront his complex place in this foreign culture, the friendship that brought him there, and his own deepest fears and desires.

The production will feature scenic design by Takeshi Kata, costume design by Jessica Wegener Shay, lighting design by Ben Stanton, and sound design by Jill BC DuBoff.
