Mia Park

Mia Park is an American TV show host, actress, drummer, and yoga instructor based in Chicago.

She is the long-time host of the children's dance show Chic-a-Go-Go, and co-founder[1] of Chicago's A-Squared Theatre Workshop.

"[7] Reviews of the show frequently focus on Park's "deliriously chipper"[8] style or "always-up rock-n-roll demeanor".

[15] Park's contribution, which dealt with her grandmother's escape from North Korea and also involved a lengthy handstand, attracted particular attention.

On the one side, she constantly hears the refrain that Asian-American actors — whether their roots are in Hawaii or India or China or Pakistan — are hard to find.

On the other edge, there’s the belief that they simply aren’t right for shows that don’t deal specifically with Asian storylines or characters.
