Jacky Lai of A Sugar & Spice Holiday on Her Family s Asian-Canadian Christmas Traditions by Robert Kahn
Canadian actress Jacky Lai leads the cast of A Sugar & Spice Holiday, Lifetime s first movie to focus on an Asian American family. And there s a trio of Asian women guiding matters behind the scenes as well: director Jennifer Liao, writer Eirene Donohue and casting director Judy JK Lee. Veteran actor Tzi Ma co-stars.
The movie has sights set on your sweet tooth: It follows Lai s Suzie Young, a rising L.A. architect who returns home for Christmas and is caught up in a baking competition alongside high school pal, Billy (Tony Giroux). Billy is still the same old mischief-maker, but also a generous community volunteer and…well, geez, those dimples.
