Exotic Deadly: Or The MSG Play by Keiko Green is a comedic play that dives into the complexities of identity and misinformation. Set in 1999, the story follows Ami, a 14-year-old Japanese-American girl, who just wants to fit in despite feeling disconnected from her heritage. When she discovers that her family has a history tied to MSG—a substance blamed for "Chinese Restaurant Syndrome"—Ami confronts the myths, prejudices, and identity crises that shape her world. With humor and a dash of surrealism, Exotic Deadly explores cultural misconceptions and the challenges of navigating multiple identities in America.

A staged reading through Theatre Diaspora, directed by Kate Duffly. Free and open to the public.
