Press

“In her pre-show speech, Director Sarah Shin said that they rehearsed up to the last moment to provide an experience where everyone brought their A-game, and it truly was exceptional. Shin deftly balances the heavy material by focusing initially on humor. As things become more real for Afong Moy, we see the tone grow darker and more serious.” BroadwayWorld Houston

“…director Sarah Shin, whose work throughout is nuanced and knowing…Stages’ production is first-rate. “ The Houston Press

“Powerhouse performing artist Sarah Shin is a multi-talented creative whose work as an actor and director has taken her across the country. She now brings her directing talent to Stages Houston for this season’s production of Lloyd Suh’s The Chinese Lady.” OutSmart Magazine

“With an imaginatively constructed set, striking and beautiful costumes, and outstanding performances that remind us of the undeniable connections between the political and the personal, “The Chinese Lady” springs from history that is often elided or forgotten. This play is a powerful corrective to that practice…” The Houston Chronicle
