LEE/GENDARY

Synopsis:
Set in the inner landscape of Bruce Lee's mind the moment he died in 1973, LEE/GENDARY is a theatrical deconstruction of an icon; a spiritual and psychological examination of Lee's life from birth to death. This gender-bending theatre performance integrates text, live original music, video and an explosive hybrid of martial Arts and dance. LEE/GENDARYwas first presented at HERE's the American Living Room Festival 2006 as a work-in-progress, and then at the National Asian American theater Festival held in New York City in June 2007
