I have only vague recollections of the movie, and haven't seen the stage version, but even if the "asian characters" are cut how can the show have "no roles for asians at all"? Do all of the other roles require non-Asian actors? Such a script would be a rarity. I've even seen My Fair Lady with Asians in leading roles.
