To mark Asian Pacific American Heritage Month this May, Theater Mu announced NEW EYES FESTIVAL: UN(SCENE) as part of the current 2020-2021 season. Theater Mu s longest-running tradition, the New Eyes Festival, has become a much-anticipated annual series of staged readings of new works from Asian American Playwrights. The festival acts as an artistic incubator for thoughts and ideas looking to be born onto the stage. This year, as a response to the rising violence against Asian and Asian American communities, the New Eyes Festival will consist of a series of original ten-minute virtual plays written by local and nationally recognized playwrights with ties to Theater Mu and the Twin Cities. The idea to pivot this year s festival was brought to the Mu staff by Board Member Katie Hae Leo, who also serves as the festival s producer:
