Daphne Does Dim Sum

"Hauh fook! We are having the best kind of ‘lucky mouth’!" Daphne Ong exclaims to her friend Bessie during their weekly meal together in a cavernous Dim Sum Restaurant. What happens when these two Chinese mavens slug it out over who has the best shrimp puffs, the best date for the dance, the best "Hong Kong" ring, and who will pay the check? "Mai Dan!" (Check Please!) of course. A delightful new play by San Francisco playwright Eugenie Chan, Daphne Does Dim Sum…or Mai Dan! enjoys it’s World Premiere at the Professional Centenary Stage Company.

A cute waiter and a colorful brother add some extra spice to this comic class of cultures with a happy ending for two good friends.
