Case 84: Adopted in the U.S.A.

Case 84: Adopted in the U.S.A. is a deeply personal and sharply funny solo show by Edward Yoo Pokropski, a Korean-American comedian, writer, and producer. Through a mix of humor, heart, and multimedia storytelling, Pokropski explores his experience growing up as an adoptee in the United States. The show navigates themes of identity, family, and belonging—shedding light on what it means to search for roots in a culture that often overlooks stories like his.

Drawing from childhood memories, pop culture influences, and his journey to reconnect with his heritage, Pokropski offers a candid and compelling look at adoption from the inside out. Case 84 invites audiences to laugh, reflect, and engage with a perspective that’s rarely seen on stage.
