“As horrifying, deeply American, kinda David-Lynch-meets-hip-hop narratives, this one is a doozy.” –SF WEEKLY

In You Will Gonna Go Crazy, a hilariously sad and lyrical semiautobiographical multimedia dance-theatre play, Hasón, a wise-cracking crybaby, is forever on a quest to become "uncried" in the wake of his family's traumatic past. Hasón's mother was framed and arrested by the FBI for murder in 1976. Based on personal archives, this intimate coming-of-age story explores the traumatic impacts of racist history on the Filipino American family.

“...hilarious, comic-book theater with characters that make you laugh and shudder at the same time." - Genny Lim, award-winning playwright and author of Paper Angels.

“Perez is wit on wheels: sharp, funny, brilliant, torquing toward grit and pathos. To see his work is to believe in the hunger of his cause." – Edie Meidav, Bard Fiction Prize-winning author of Crawl Space.
