Around this production
The casting of Jonathan Pryce, a white actor, as the Eurasian Engineer sparked a major controversy about yellowface that helped reshape Broadway casting conversations.
At the 1993 opening of Miss Saigon, during the show’s ballad “Why God Why,” he turned to his date and proclaimed, “You gotta be kidding me ... they stole that melody from ‘There’s a Small Hotel’!” Even at that late date, you couldn’t put one over on him.
