Blue Eye Samurai
On this episode of Good Pop, we check out Netflix's new adult animation series Blue Eye Samurai, following a mixed-race swordswoman on a quest for revenge to hunt down four White men hiding illegally in Edo period Japan, one of whom might just be her father. Featuring a star studded cast of Asian American voices, will that be enough to propel Blue Eye Samurai to good pop status?

Don't miss an all AAPI production of HENRY VI: A Trilogy in Two Parts at The Public in NYC
NAATCO returns to The Public with their production of Shakespeare's trilogy, HENRY VI: A TRILOGY IN TWO PARTS, adapted and directed by Stephen Brown-Fried. Condensed into two parts and performed in rep, experience this saga of a nation spinning wildly out of control. Part 1: Foreign Wars kicks off with the funeral of King Henry V, leaving his infant son on the throne and sending the country into decades of spiraling chaos both abroad and at home. Part 2: Civil Strife picks up nearly 30 years later, as nascent domestic feuds rapidly metastasize into the full-blown civil war known as the War of the Roses.
