What I liked

Paul takes us through a personal journey battling with his Asian American roots growing up intertwined with the complexities of gaining visibility while battling through Hollywood’s predominantly “whitewashed” casting war zone. Thought provokingly imaginable through the parallels of three iconic superheroes ultimately leading us to the downfall of a superhero who is often underrated. The hero lies in no one other than—-well, you will have to see him perform to find out.

What I didn't like

flawlessly executed, no critical remarks worth mentioning on this performance

My overall impression

Clever storytelling, well thought out. Great representation of the underrepresented in Hollywood. A must see one-man show led by the one and only superhero himself, Paul Yen.
