“Patsy” is an original play by Alison Minami about the first Asian American Congresswoman, Patsy Mink.

While Maui High School senior and star athlete, Kailani, waits to find out if she’s been accepted into her dream school, Patsy Mink, the first Asian American congresswoman and former valedictorian of Maui High school, appears before her. As Patsy walks Kailani through the many trials and tribulations she faced throughout her political career and life, Kailani realizes that no matter how many setbacks she encounters, she can succeed as long as she perseveres.

The East West Players’ Theatre for Youth touring production offers new ways to see the world through theatre that stimulate students to discover the prominent role Asian Pacific Americans have played in our history.
