“Surfing DNA” is a journey of self-discovery and an exploration of the imprinted forces — genetic, cultural and emotional — that steer us through life. Born in a trunk to vaudevillian parents? on the Chop Suey Circuit, Long? hilariously and poignantly surfs on a trek from “The Ed Sullivan Show” to medieval Japan to the Scottish Highlands. All the while she is undeniably guided by the forces embedded in her DNA and compelled by the evolutionary power of self-creation.
Showtimes: Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m., Sundays at 3 p.m. until Sept. 29. Tickets are $30 each or $100 for four.
For more information, call (323) 521-8600 or visit http://workingstage.com/.

She is a veteran of stage, film and television whose regular series work includes co-starring with Valerie Bertinelli in “Cafe Americain”; playing Margaret Cho’s mother in “All-American Girl”; and playing Alicia Silverstone’s secretary in “Miss Match.”

The film played numerous film festivals, including the 2008 Hawaii International Film Festival, and won the 2008 Los Angeles Asian Pacific Film Festival’s Audience Award for Best Documentary.
