Silk Road Cultural Center presents a staged reading of Lyra Nalan's new work, "Road Less Traveled"!
About this Event

Join Silk Road Cultural Center on Saturday, November 22nd, for a staged reading of Lyra Nalan's Road Less Traveled, co-directed by Helen Young and Maura Kidwell.

This new work-in-progress parallels Robert Frost’s iconic poem, “The Road Not Taken” (1915), with the extraordinary life of Chinese American trailblazer Tye Leung Schulze (1887-1972). The poem provides a fascinating framework for mapping Tye’s life choices and the legacy she left behind.

The performance will begin at 2 PM, followed by a talkback discussion and reception.
