Trivia / Avatar: The Last Airbender - "The Ember Island Players"

  • Development Gag:
    • Aang being played by a woman is a reference to the creators being pressured by the studio to cast one as Aang's voice actor instead of an actual preteen boy as they wound up doing with Zach Tyler Eisen.
    • Toph was originally designed as a muscular man (her original design being the Earthbender from the opening). Then the creators thought it would be funnier if she were a little girl and it changed. Toph's portrayal in the play is as a muscular man.
  • Fandom Nod: The play makes many references to fandom, such as the prevalence of the Zuko-Katara ship, confusion over Jet and Combustion Man's deaths, and a bunch of other in-jokes.
