This paper explores the themes of melancholia and identity struggles among Asian American men, focusing on the intersections of race, masculinity, and diaspora in Julia Cho’s Durango. The play critically examines the influence of the American Dream and the model minority myth, highlighting how these narratives impose unrealistic ideals and strain familial relationships. Through the characters Boo-Seng, Isaac, and Jimmy, it portrays how societal pressures intensify personal grief, creating cycles of conflict and despair that mirror broader challenges tied to racial and gendered expectations. Although the family’s road trip to Durango fails, it sparks subtle emotional changes. Jimmy’s acknowledgment of his homosexuality and his attempts to connect with his family signals the possibility of healing. Likewise, the tense clashes between Boo-Seng and Isaac, driven by their shared stubbornness, hint at a path toward reconciliation. By confronting their struggles together, the family redefines their sense of home and identity, moving beyond rigid societal norms. The play’s surrealist conclusion departs from its realist core, implying that freedom from melancholia comes not from resolving every conflict but from reimagining identity and belonging. Durango offers a cautiously optimistic perspective on navigating diasporic challenges, emphasizing the importance of familial care and self-awareness in addressing the complexities of race, masculinity, and immigrant identity within a marginalized context.
