Kristina Wong vows that at the end of her show, she will save all Asian American women from their inexplicably high rates of suicide and depression. How is she so qualified? Because she’s has never been depressed herself. Really! She even says that any reference she makes to having been depressed is fictional. After all, what Chinese American family isn’t perfect? Certainly not the Wongs! Irreverent, clever, and insanely meta-theatrical, Wong’s attempts at playing savior unravel faster than the nest of yarn she’s perched on. She descends quickly into the divide between Asian porn stars and the impossibly perfect. Along the way she becomes a hysterical living commentary on the cultural and societal pressures that may be creating depression in the first place.
