Theater Mu

Mu is heading to Saint Paul’s libraries to read Asian American storybooks and talk about the fun and importance of costumes! Join our teaching artists and become a costume designer for a day through our arts and crafts activity. Geared toward infants through preschoolers.

Hmong Futures: The Future of Us is an intergenerational story asking what it takes for a family to move from surviving to thriving. Anchoring the play are its protagonists, three Hmong American women, and it examines the conversations, daily rituals, and little moments that help us heal. To create this world premiere, playwright Katie Ka Vang held community engagement events and discussions in 2025, during the 50th anniversary of Southeast Asian people in Minnesota.

Take home HMong Futures’ messages of healing, belonging, and connection with a free, family-friendly event with the Minnesota Center for the Book Arts! Drop in anytime Apr 19 from noon-1:30 pm CT at the Mu Community Room (755 Prior Ave N, Saint Paul) to create your own poster.

Join us for an evening of comedic (and unhinged and unfiltered) storytelling featuring Asian American voices! Through sharp humor, personal stories, and a smidge of chaos, performers will unpack everything from identity to stereotypes, pet peeves, Minnesota, and even their sex lives. Don't miss out on your chance to hear Asian American opinions (for once, finally, UGH)!

Stop by Theater Mu’s table at the Edina Asian American Alliance’s AAPI Month Festival! Spend the afternoon outdoors connecting with community organizations, taking in performances, and eating delicious food. May 16, noon to 4 pm, Rosland Park, 4300 W 66th St, Edina, edinaasianamericanalliance.org .

presented by TAIKOARTS MIDWEST & THEATER MU produced by SAN JOSE TAIKO

Get ready for a world premiere of apocalyptic proportions, epic collaborations with Taiko Arts Midwest and Stages Theatre Company, an inaugural solo festival, and a continued commitment to exciting new play development. Mu’s 2026-27 season affirms that which has long been true: We belong.

Three Southeast Asian Girl Scouts are keeping their Saint Paul, MN, community together during the zombie apocalypse. Between helping their elders, doing food runs, and building campfires, they’ve probably earned, like, four Gold Awards each. This genre-bending world premiere is the finale of playwright Saymoukda Duangphouxay Vongsay’s Kung Fu Zombies trilogy, but all you need to know is that, for some reason, these zombies know kung fu.

ft. HOLD THESE TRUTHS by JEANNE SAKATA and two more plays TBA!
