What does it mean to be seen — and who gets to decide what’s beautiful?
In Gorgeous, playwright Keiko Green delivers a sharp, funny, and deeply tender coming-of-age play about a young Korean American woman navigating friendship, desire, and self-worth. Set in an open garage in suburban Georgia, GORGEOUS takes an unexpected turn when Jenny finds herself in a no-holds-barred showdown with Bernie — a force of nature masquerading as a woman — following the death of Bill, an old, miserable man suddenly remembered as a saint. The object of their battle? Bill’s English bulldog, Gorgeous.
By turns heartfelt and ferocious, this bold comedy asks big questions with humor and bite: Who gets to change their story? Who gets grace? And what does it take to finally see yourself clearly?
