On Saturday, October 29, Scripps Presents hosts a free and open to the public performance of American Dreams/Asian Nightmares, a dance, music, and spoken narrative program chronicling the history of the Chinese Massacre of 1871.

The performance is a follow-up to the 2021 theatrical podcast about the 1871 Los Angeles Chinatown Massacre, Blood on Gold Mountain, and it is said to be a “sonic exploration of the Asian American experience, and its many beautiful contradictions.”

The performance will begin at 4 p.m. at Garrison Theater, 241 E. 10th St., Claremont. To register for the free event, visit eventbrite.com/e/american-dreamsasian-nightmares-tickets-409527978207.
