Magic World Premiere The Boiling by Sunhui Chang


the boiling

By Sunhui Chang

Directed By Ellen Sebastian Chang

Conceived originally as a screenplay, Sunhui’s now-play keeps the cinema’s ability to shatter time and narrative and bats around the pieces like a cat with a ball of string. The story concerns Brian, a Korean-American virologist and former homicide detective; and Vee, a black woman in the Pacific Northwest. These two characters are thrust together to track David, a white, nihilistic carrier of a feverish virus called “the boiling”: the search reveals the intersections of science, identity, home…and birding within an American landscape made of our histories and traditions of redemptive violence.
