It's Teen Night ($5 tickets!) for Exotic Deadly: Or the MSG Play, the new teen-oriented play from SIS Productions and Pork Filled Productions, at the Theatre Off Jackson, 409 7th Ave. S. in Seattle's International District.
It’s 1999, and Ami is an awkward, Japanese American high school girl, just trying to stay as invisible as possible. But her world comes crashing down with a terrible discovery: her family is responsible for manufacturing MSG, the poison spice getting all the kids hooked. Meanwhile, a mysterious new girl arrives from Japan. Her name? Exotic Deadly and she’s not playing by the rules. Who… or what is she? This whimsical, time-traveling adventure is a riotous romp through teenage crushes, family secrets, and female power as Ami realizes what she’s capable of, if she would just stop being invisible.
Exotic Deadly is rated PG-14 for wild teen girl crushes, occasional profanity, potential time travel whiplash and culinary overstimulation.
Featuring Karis Ho, Pearl Mei Lam, Josh Kenji, James Lee, Van Lang Pham, Kathy Hsieh, Julie Chen, Karissa Chin, Josh Erme, Ken Kavin, Tim Takechi and Maia Low
