* Description: Nearly two decades into his theatrical career, Paul Susi is cast as Chee Gong, a Chinese immigrant executed in 1889 for a crime he did not commit and buried in an unmarked grave in Susi’s hometown of Portland, Oregon. This role sets off a meditation on cultural erasure and how the act of “forgetting” can be both a survival mechanism and a trap. But the heart of Character Work takes place offstage: Susi has spent many years managing shelters for unhoused people, and out of that work grew his mutual aid project, PDX ID Assistance, a radical effort that literally gives people back their identities. His book is at once a memoir, a manifesto, and a startlingly honest account of what compassion can look like.
