21 Asian Actors in America: Philip Kan Gotanda s Yankee Dawg You Die Hsiao-mei HSIEH Assistant Professor, Department of Drama and Theatre, National Taiwan University The Asian American theatre movement emerged with the rise of the civil rights movement in the 1960s, which challenged white-male dominance and gave voice to minorities. The efforts of pioneering Asian American playwrights such as Frank Chin in the 1970s paved way for the second wave playwrights, among whom David Henry Hwang and Philip Kan Gotanda (1951-) gained mainstream acceptance and visibility since the 1980s. This essay discusses one of Gotanda s plays, Yankee Dawg You Die. By portraying the interactions between two actors of different generations, the play debates what role an Asian American actor should play in the entertainment business. The Asian American community had long been constructed as alien by the mainstream media. In what way does an Asian American actor, as part of the industry, regard his own profession? The work of Asian American performing artists often has to negotiate with various established oriental stereotypes. How does an Asian American playwright play with these images and further subvert them? In this article, I examine the US performing arts industry, and the relatively marginal position of Asian American actors, while attempting to situate the play Yankee Dawg You Die in this historical context for analysis. In the beginning of the play the two actors seem to represent two totally different visions, but in the end the author suggests that compliance and confrontation, submissiveness and resistance, are actually two sides of a coin for an Asian American actor.
