Hear Ken as the voice of Mark Twain in PARANG SABIL, the legendary ballad of the Tausug people of the southern Philippines. The New World Theater presents this stunning story of the struggle against U.S. military occupation and the massacre of indigenous Muslim people in 1906. Kinding Sindaw's multimedia dance-theater production, conceived and choreographed by Potri Ranka Manis and directed by Andrea Assaf, juxtaposes Tausug dance, music, martial arts, and epic storytelling with Mark Twain's satirical anti-imperialist writings. Part of the very first National Asian American Theater Festival in New York.

At the Holden Theater, Amherst College, in Amherst, Massachusetts June 15 - 16, and at the Samuel Beckett Theatre in New York June 19 – 21.
