Winston Tong

Winston Tong

Winston Tong is a San Francisco-based performer and artist, probably best known for his work as a vocalist for Tuxedomoon. Tong has also received notoriety as a puppeteer, actor/playwright, visual artist, and as singer/songwriter for his solo musical work.

Tong's intensely personal and unique approach to performance art has earned him an Obie award in puppetry (for "Bound Feet", 1978), as well as numerous references and quotes in theatre-related publications. Recently, Tong was reunited with Tuxedomoon for two performances in San Francisco (March 2005), the first time they had performed together in twenty years.
