Jude Narita international actor/writer started writing and performing her own works after becoming frustrated by the lack of available roles, and with the continual portrayals in the media, of demeaning and one-dimensional stereotypes of Asian women without dignity or understanding. Narita is best known for her award-winning one-woman plays which celebrate the lives of Asian and Asian American women: COMING INTO PASSION/SONG FOR A SANSEI, Stories Waiting To Be Told, Celebrate Me Home, Walk The Mountain, and With Darkness Behind Us, Daylight Has Come.

"In an astonishing solo performance, Jude Narita, a versatile actress and fearless writer, sheds an authentic, humorous and deeply moving light on the dilemma of the Asian American woman."
