George Takei, Lea Salonga, Telly Leung and more will pledge their Allegiance as they officially open in the new tuner on November 8. Directed by Stafford Arima, the production, which is based on Takei’s childhood experience in a Japanese-American interment camp, is playing at Broadway’s Longacre Theatre.
To celebrate the Great White Way premiere of this tale of family, love and patriotism set during World War II and beyond, Broadway.com resident artist Justin “Squigs” Robertson penned this portrait. In addition to the leading trio, the sketch features Katie Rose Clarke, Michael K. Lee, Christopheren Nomura and Greg Watanabe, along with a few "wishes on the wind."
Oh my! Broadway.com wishes the cast a happy opening!
About the Artist: With a desire to celebrate the magic of live theater and those who create it, and with a deep reverence for such touchstones as the work of Al Hirschfeld and the wall at Sardi’s, Squigs is happy and grateful to be among those carrying on the traditions where theater and caricature meet. He was born and raised in Oregon, lived in Los Angeles for quite a long time and now calls New York City his home.
