The Water Faucet Vision by Gish Jen is a remarkable story about a young Chinese-American girl growing up in a family that is caught between two cultures. Rosalind Chao ("Soon Lee" on TV's M*A*S*H) gives a superb performance leading an outstanding cast, which includes Firesign's Phil Proctor and his wife Melinda Peterson. The production is carefully authentic in its use of Chinese language and dialect (although it is an English-language story). A fascinating interview with the author also follows this story.
