TV journalist Mark Niu's play "Juche Rules," based on his
state-sponsored bus tour of North Korea, took the top honor at the USC
Master of Professional Writing 2008 One-Act Play Festival Wednesday.
The
play follows two Western journalists who videotape state secrets and
learn about morality from their own tour guide, who seems to blindly
follow his nation's propaganda.
Niu, a second-year screenwriting
and playwriting student, spent more than a decade as a TV anchor and
reporter covering Asia. His work has appeared on Fox, PBS and the
National Geographic Channel.
