To mark six decades of artistic excellence and community impact, East West Players (EWP) and the Japanese American National Museum (JANM) will host a central celebration: Stages of Our Stories: 60 Years of Asian American Theater at East West Players.

This commemorative event, held at JANM’s Daniel K. Inouye National Center for the Preservation of Democracy (Democracy Center) in Little Tokyo, will highlight pivotal moments from EWP’s history by presenting excerpts from six landmark plays, one from each decade of the company’s existence. The evening promises to be a moving tribute to the EWP artists that have shaped the Asian American theater landscape.
