We have a tremendous opportunity, through the medium of theater,
to reach hundreds of thousands with this incredible story of
strength, honor and courage in a time of great sadness and
injustice in America. Please watch the video all the way
through, and take 5 minutes to make a contribution that says, “I
care, George.” Any amount helps, and I thank you from the
bottom of my heart.
Icons of Star Trek and Star Wars recently took to the internet
arguing that their franchise reigned supreme. When things
got personal, George Takei–the only actor who has worked in
both–stepped in to broker the peace by identifying a mutual
threat.
The 40th Anniversary production and first-ever Broadway revival
of Stephen Schwartz’s rock musical GODSPELL officially opened at
the Circle in the Square Theater on November 7.
George was only four years old when US soldiers forced he and his
family out of their home and into camps with barbed wire and
sentry towers. Here he recollects the days after the attack
on Pearl Harbor when Japanese Americans became “Enemy
non-aliens”.
An incredible group of Japanese-American soldiers in World War II
changed the world and touched many lives with their dignity and
honor.Courage. Service. Honor.
The 100th and 442nd Regimental Combat Teams were some of the
greatest units in U.S. military history, yet so few in America
have ever heard of them.
While they were on the battlefield, their families were
incarcerated in internment camps simply because of prejudice.
The bravery and patriotism of the Nisei soldiers earned them the
Congressional Gold Medal.
Even with less than stellar audio capture, this amazing
performance of Lea Salonga of the Stephen Sondheim beloved tune
from A Little Night Music was too good to pass up!
Tony Award winner and Allegiance’s own Lea Salonga and
actor/director Victor Lirio talk about the upcoming concert event
for Philippine Development Foundation, Suites by Sondheim, at
Alice Tully Hall, Lincoln Center on November 7, 2011 at 7:30PM.
You probably recognize him as Mr. Sulu… George Takei stopped by
7Live to talk about the impact Star Trek had on society and how
his father encouraged him to be engaged in the community (and how
to correctly pronounce his name!).

Leung (Rent, Flower Drum Song, Godspell, Glee, Allegiance)

career, his role as a warbler on the TV hit show Glee, and

Takei and Lea
Salonga on the upcoming Broadway show Allegiance.
International star Lea Salonga, singing voice of Disney’s
Princess Jasmine and Mulan and a Tony and Olivier winner for Miss
Saigon, answers fan-submitted questions in a contest for LML
Music in a promotion for her new album, THE JOURNEY SO FAR.
She also talks about her time in Les Miserables, love of the
Yankees, and her current work with ALLEGIANCE, a new
Broadway-bound musical.
George Takei takes on the Tennessee Legislature and its “Don’t
Say Gay” bill, in the way only George Takei can!
A bill now pending in Tennessee would prohibit teachers in that
state from discussing homosexuality in the classroom. The
so-called “don’t say gay” law is premised on the misguided belief
that, by not talking about gay people, they can simply make us
disappear.
On February 13th 2011, George Takei, the Japanese American
National Museum, and the Broadway-bound musical Allegiance,
