A first-generation Chinese immigrant mother raising her daughter with the only tools she was given. This role requires nuance and complexity.

We want to see the internal conflict of a woman who knows she is hurting her daughter, yet believes she is acting out of love. Must be able to count in Mandarin Chinese. Supporting Role. Dramatic material involving striking a child. A fight choreographer will be provided.
