Bubble tea.
Kimchi.
Hot pot.
It’s cool to be Asian right now. Audience members will enjoy a traditional hot pot meal while Amanda reminisces on when it wasn’t so cool to be Asian, delving into the complicated topic of cultural identity. As pressure builds and the show comes crashing down around her, Amanda must come face to face with the question: What does it mean to be authentic, and does it even matter?
