“The Paper Dreams of Harry Chin” at IRT

After having to close shortly before its opening in March 2020, Indiana Repertory Theatre is honored to be able to bring back The Paper Dreams of Harry Chin this season! This surreal journey through past and present runs April 20 – May 15 on IRT‘s Upperstage and will be available for streaming May 2 – 15.

About the show

The Paper Dreams of Harry Chin, based on a true story and written by Jessica Huang, is the second production in this season’s INclusion Series, celebrating diverse storytelling. Despite the US ban against Chinese immigrants, Harry Chin forged a new identity to earn precious American dollars to send home to his starving village. Now he is trapped between two families and two worlds. Seasoned with magic and mystery, this hauntingly theatrical tale from our overlooked history considers the personal and political repercussions of making a group of people illegal.
