UC San Diego Department of Theatre + Dance presents Exotic Deadly, Or the MSG Play

Celebrate AAPI Heritage Month with a special re-mount of EXOTIC DEADLY, OR THE MSG PLAY by Keiko Green MFA '22, directed by Professor Jennifer Chang and featuring a predominantly AAPI cast and creative team. Now streaming through May 31. CLICK HERE TO STREAM

ABOUT THE PLAY: 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. She’s loud, she smokes, and she’s not playing by the rules. Who… or what is she? In this time traveling adventure, Ami vows to save the world from MSG and realizes what she’s capable of, if she would just stop being invisible.
