Listening with Alvin Eng, Playwright & Author

Listening with Alvin Eng, Playwright & Author

In this episode I talk with Alvin Eng the author of "Our Laundry, Our Town: My Chinese American Life from Flushing to the Downtown Stage and Beyond." He tells us about his experience living in a home where Chinese and English were both heard, how that defined his love for rock and roll and shaped his writing.

Alvin Eng is a native NYC playwright, memoirist, performer, acoustic punk rock raconteur and educator. His plays and performances have been seen Off-Broadway, throughout the U.S., as well as in Paris, Hong Kong and Guangzhou, China.

He is also the author of "Three Trees: A Portrait Play of Alberto Giacometti & Isaku Yanaihara," "Tokens? The NYC Asian American Experience On Stage An Oral History and Play Anthology." He produced the musical "Last Hand Laundry in Chinatown" and created the solo performance work, "The Last Emperor of Flushing."
