Dear John

About

Dear John is a solo show based on a true story created and performed by Rachel Lin. It’s 2011, and for a certain recent graduate and actor-hopeful, things are not going…well. When a Facebook message from a mysterious stranger named John arrives, she’s forced to reckon with a past that comes hurtling back. Weaving together Facebook DMs, hand-written letters, recorded interviews and anecdotes of living as an undocumented immigrant kid in NYC’s Chinatown, Dear John is documentary theater about the ways we try (and fail) to reach each other, over and over again.
