Event

Dragon Lady

World Premiere*

It is the year of the Water Dragon and the eve of Grandma Maria's 75th birthday. By the light of the karaoke machine, fueled by pork dumplings and diet Pepsi, she shares a dark secret from her Filipino gangster past with one lucky grandchild.

Traveling back and forth through 50 years of faulty memories, Sara Porkalob embodies the women of her family to weave a tale about their past that seems too grandiose to be true.

3 generations, 6 women, 1 Dragon Lady.

Written, produced and and performed by Sara Porkalob
