The Center for the Asian Arts and Media at Columbia College in Chicago has announced that Baayork Lee will direct and choreograph their new production of Rodgers and Hammerstein's Flower Drum Song next August. The production, which will begin as a concert in Washington D.C. in honor of Asian Pacific American Heritage Month in collaboration with the U.S.-Asia Institute in May of 2010, will run for one month in Chicago. The show will ultimately make a transfer to Shanghai in the late fall of 2010.

The production features top Asian American talents from Broadway and Hollywood, led by Tony-Award-winning playwright David Henry Hwang (M. Butterfly), who adapted the musical book for the recent Broadway revival, and veteran Broadway director/choreographer Baayork Lee (A Chorus Line). 

Casting has yet to be announced.

Lee made her big stage debut in 1973 when she appeared in Bennett's Seesaw and was featured opposite Tommy Tune. »
