Irene Woo: Golden Child
by Irene Woo
Preview · Thu 6 Aug – Fri 7 Aug2 for 1 · Mon 10 Aug – Tue 11 Aug14+
From a sold-out NYC preview! Until recently, Irene Woo embodied the 'Golden Child'. As a Senior Software Engineer at Google, she had it all: the six-figure salary, the impressive title, and the unconditional approval of her immigrant parents. But when she turned 28, she quit her job to tell jokes in damp basements. With the unrelenting standards of a type-A Asian oldest daughter and the messy reality of a human being, Irene explores the golden handcuffs of tech, the cultural whiplash of being a French-Chinese woman in America, and the baffling logic of modern relationships.
