I Am "America's Foremost Thai-American Writer"

I have a play opening in Seattle this month. In the theater company's press materials, I am described as "America's foremost Thai-American writer." Ha ha ha ha ha! These guys are bigger comedians than I am! Ha ha ha ha ha!

If you're in Washington, come see this show. You do realize that I keep a mental file of all the people who do and who do not attend my productions, right? I believe an entire movie franchise was even created around the fact that Asian people hold grudges.

THE THEORY OF EVERYTHING
by Prince Gomolvilas

directed by Manuel R. Cawaling
featuring Jose Abaoag, Stan Asis, Leilani Berinobis, Aya Hashiguchi Clark, Kathy Hsieh, Tiffany Koyano, Miko Premo, Sam Tsubota

Seven Asian Americans gather atop a Las Vegas wedding chapel every week and discover a unique personal bond as they each search for their own life's meaning. This vibrant and insightful comedy won the International Herald Tribune/SRT Playwriting Competition, the Julie Harris Playwright Award, and the PEN Center USA West Literary Award for Drama. A funny, moving, brilliantly written play about life and the meaning of existence by America's foremost Thai-American writer.

"A refreshing look at Asian-American issues of race, gender, and identity, layered with deeper questions of life and death. Gomolvilas's writing is tight, intelligent and funny.... Likeable characters and sharply written dialogue.... A play worth seeing for its humor and humanity." —The Business Times, Singapore
