ORIENT, an outgrowth of my site huggingasians.com, is in development and getting support. CounterPULSE, Oakland Asian Cultural Center and Eth-Noh-Tec are supporting the work alongside poets like Brenda Hillman, Truong Tran, Matthew Shenoda, LaTasha Nevada Diggs, Ellen Bass, Evie Shockley, Singaporean poet Alvin Pang and Tony Award-winning composer Jason Robert Brown. We're still raising funds and would appreciate any help. $35 and over gets a DVD or CD of the premieres but we'll take whatever amount you can afford!!!
