Qian shares stories about tasting flesh, private schools and how his family's love language is primarily milk, exploring what milk has to do with growing up privileged and Asian in America.

Why see this show?

A genuinely unusual solo debut that uses milk as a lens for privilege, family and identity. Kevin Qian's offbeat premise — voices, private schools and an awful lot of milk — makes for a 50-minute show that is hard to categorise and easy to be curious about.
