Cast and Crew
Viet Nguyen
Playwright, Actor
Viet Nguyen (he/him) hails from Sarasota, Florida, home of beautiful beaches, ambling drivers, and a purple cow. He– Viet, not the cow– has performed "Reincarnation Soup" at both the Orlando and Edmonton International Fringe Theatre Festivals. His original shows produced at the Orlando Fringe also include "The Monkey King" and "Bio Psycho Social." Other Central Florida acting credits include "Macbeth" with Sisyphus Productions, "Rashomon" and "Eurydice" with Mad Cow Theatre, "Elegies for Angels, Punks, and Raging Queens" with Checkerboard Productions, and "Cowboy Versus Samurai" with the Asian Pacific Arts Scene, Inc. (APASI). As a newcomer to the Twin Cities theater community, he recently performed in Exposed Brick Theatre's world premiere of "Muyehpen." Viet studied acting at the University of Florida and earned a Master in Social Work from the University of Central Florida. By day he is a passionate educational equity coach. By night he is an actor, a tired parent, and a connoisseur of soup.
More Information

Viet Nguyen twists the memory play and the multi-character solo show together in a resonant and ingenious way that changes both.

The result is mesmerizing. Memory expands to cross continents, oceans, wars, generations, cultures, time.

There’s a swirl of memories, heartbreaking, wistful, and funny — stories from a fascinating gallery of characters.

-Edmonton Journal

The depth and richness of these continent-spanning tales remain with you long after you leave the theatre.

-Edmonton Sun

Reincarnation Soup had me feeling a bit like Oliver Twist, lifting my empty bowl and pleading, ‘Please sir, I want some more.’ Viet Nguyen is enthralling and mesmerizing in his brilliantly crafted one-man show that is sure to stay on the minds of his audiences long after the curtain comes down.

-Orlando Sentinel

You’re left with a feeling of sorrow but also one of riches – of a people and a country that are troubled but also strong and proud. Reincarnation Soup is a small show that will stay with you. It deserves to be seen – and celebrated.

-Elizabeth Maupin on Theater

Nguyen connects with his audience in an intensely personal way.

-Orlando Weekly

The overall effect is alternately chilling and heartwarming.
