The Good Pop Culture Club is back at full strength this week! Hanh is back from her Asian vacation and not a moment too soon as we dive into Guillermo Del Toro's take on Mary Shelley's classic (and some may say the OG) science fiction gothic novel, Frankenstein! We were all excited when we learned that GDT, the master of beautifully unsettling visuals and sexy monsters, was taking a stab at this classic tale of man's hubris. Does it live up to the hype?

Don't miss an all AAPI production of HENRY VI: A Trilogy in Two Parts at The Public in NYC

The National Asian American Theatre Company’s acclaimed production of HENRY VI: A TRILOGY IN TWO PARTS brings an all-AANHPI cast to The Public Theater for a decades-spanning saga of Joan of Arc, warring dukes, and the bloody birth of the War of the Roses. Adapted by Stephen Brown-Fried, this is Shakespeare like you've never experienced it. Part 1: Foreign Wars opens with a king dead, an infant on the throne, and a country already coming apart at the seams. Part 2: Civil Strife picks up nearly 30 years later...and the bloodbath is yet to come. Simmering feuds explode into the War of the Roses, and nothing will ever be the same. Performances from June 9 through July 19! Use code H6BC for $59 tickets!
