Ma-Yi Theatre Company and the National Asian American Theatre Company (NAATCO), both founded in 1989, have two distinctly separate but completely compatible missions. Ma-Yi focuses on developing Filipino American playwrights and NAATCO produces American and European classics, but both are committed to supporting Asian American theatre artists and to cultivating Asian American audiences. This project is a joyous site for a collaboration because You Can 't Take It With You portrays a supportive, productive, and harmonic co-existence among the wildly disparate members of an extended family. It illuminates the point that difference does not mean divisive, and that the recognition of what is common among unique personalities leads to a richer and more enlightened appreciation of diversity.
