DEAR YOKO
written and performed by Anzu Lawson
DEAR YOKO is a highly charged, hilarious yet deeply revealing one-woman show
that interweaves the lives of actress/playwright Anzu Lawson
and her late tiger mother, Keiko
with the wisdom and legendary life of Yoko Ono…
as they navigate xenophobia, self-worth, and identity through multiple eras.
