Reviews

Yellowface details the theatrical and musical history of Chinese and Chinese American performance at a time when 'Asian American' identity was unheard of. It should be a welcome addition to Asian American studies and American cultural history, as well as theater and music history.-Josephine Lee, Performing Asian America: Race and Ethnicity on the Contemporary Stage
