This was a Non-traditional casting break-through for all of us involved. A true love-fest, we relished in telling this beautiful, moving tale by William Finn. As the New York Times said, "it's family that matters, no matter what family."

“Leave it to a little-known troupe, the National Asian-American Theatre Company, to find a way to make the concept of Non-Traditional Casting seem novel again. The company has taken William Finn’s lyrical paean to Jewish angst, with its aggressively Jewish New York sensibility and multiple references to gefilte fish and recast it with Asian-American actors. Does the gambit work? You should be so talented. The production is sung with such elan and technical accomplishment that the dissonant moments are simply nullified by the winning ensemble.”
- The New York Times

“Cast with all Asian-American actors, Falsettoland takes on a unique, otherworldly quality that truly makes one experience the play anew. This is a cultural achievement that should be an inspiration to all who dare to reinterpret classic stage works.”
