What the heck is a Timon of Athens? Join friends of the podcast, Jeff Miller (He/They) and Elizabeth Ung (She/They) as they crack open this lesser known problem play and explain why we should produce it more!

Elizabeth “Liz” Ung (she/they) is a mixed-race queer Chinese American actor and theatre artist, born in the cultural hubs of what was once the Cienega, now southern California; originally from the Piscataway Conoy & Susquehannock lands, colonially known as Baltimore/Washington, D.C.; and currently residing in Honolulu, O’ahu, Hawai’i. One of her Shakespearean dreams is to direct and perform in Timon of Athens through the lens of a woman of color. When they are not having an existential crisis over Asian diasporic identity in art, Liz can be found living vicariously through their friend’s pets, playing nostalgically curated RPG video games, and sleeping.
