 Mission & Vision


Eugenie Chan Theater Projects develops and produces the plays of Eugenie Chan, a 5th generation San Franciscan whose forefathers sold slippers in Chinatown, dry goods in the desert, and love in the bordellos. Eugenie combines myth, family lore, imagined histories (as well as tales told by fellow Asians), and humor to tell stories that capture the epic sweep of Chinese Americans in the American West.
 
Our productions offer valuable community identity, entertainment, education, and fresh, often humorous perspectives that ask our audiences to examine their own place as immigrants, transplants, and longtime residents of California. Key projects are accessible to both English and Chinese speakers in welcoming venues at low or no-cost.

Black Lives Matter. ECTP stands in solidarity.
​

Asian Americans owe so much to black activists who led the struggle for Civil Rights and inspired us to rise up and stand for our equal rights as Americans. Before the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Asians were barred by covenant laws from buying homes in neighborhoods of their choice. Here's my family's story of their search for a home in the 1960s. They had been looking for ten years.

​Don't worry. The story has a happy ending.
