When everybody screams and yells, There’s nothing to do! There’s nothing to see! Who dreams up a place they’d like to be? The enchanted one, That’s Rosie. Rosie, the precocious little city girl, is the undisputed leader of her gang of friends. And she uses her imagination and charm turning twelve boring hours into a fascinating day. She makes her friends audition to be in the movie of her life, again. Book and lyrics written by Maurice Sendak (Where the Wild Things Are) and music composed by Carole King (famed singer/song writer). Songs will be sung, lessons will be learned and there might be a surprise appearance by Dracula. Believe Me!

A-Squared Theatre Workshop is seeking submissions of 10 minute one act plays, scenes, or monologues inspired by any aspect of “Asian Mom-ness” for the second installment of “My Asian Mom”.  Called “My Asian Mom 2.0.1.3”, this is a follow up to the company’s 2012 hit production, “My Asian Mom”, which ran for ten weeks to large Asian and non Asian American audiences in Chicago, IL.  This devised show was the brainchild of Mia Park, who is also a founding member of the company. 

Please email submissions to mamscript@gmail.com and list on the subject line, MAM 2013 Submission.

Pieces longer than 10 minutes will not be considered.  Submission deadline is January 31, 2013.

About A-Squared Theatre Workshop

Our Mission Statement:

A-Squared Theatre Workshop is a Chicago based collective that creates an artistic environment of risk taking and growth for Asian American theater artists by dynamically bringing Asian American stories to the stage for general theater-going audiences. A-Squared is a 501c3, non-profit organization and formed in 2006.

We are dedicated to:
Sharing Asian American stories and experiences to the Chicago community through live theatre.

Expanding perceptions and contexts about Asian Americans of all generations and their part in the history of America.

Creating a safe, artistic environment for Asian American theater artists to explore, express and grow in traditional and non-traditional roles both on and off the stage in Chicago.

A-Squared Theatre Workshop is partially supported by a grant from the Illinois Arts Council, a state agency, and a Community Arts Assistance Program grant from the City of Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs and the Illinois Arts Council.
