Theater Reviews + Features | Pittsburgh City Paper: By forcing herself to explore subjects she'd rather not, and using theatrical forms that discomfit her, playwright Young Jean Lee pushes her work in fascinating directions. Previous touring shows by the Brooklyn-based Lee have addressed Korean-American stereotyping (Songs of the Dragons Flying to Heaven) and, in the searing The Shipment, racism.
"I have a tendency to be somewhat apolitical, and so I tend to do a lot of political work," says Lee in a phone interview.

That's a really interesting question because i know a little while ago there was a controversy about whether or not women should be allowed to breast feed in public. Now, in New York City at least, women are allowed to be topless, as long as it is not for money. The issue comes to a point where sexism is taken into account. People love the Naked Coyboys in Times Square, I love the idea of a show that has women bare it all.
