PREPARE TO BE INTENSELY ENTERTAINED

PREPARE TO BE INTENSELY ENTERTAINED

Now Playing

by Lloyd Suh

The heart sellers

It’s Thanksgiving 1973, and life in the USA is lonely for recent Asian immigrants Jane and Luna. Over sips of wine and a questionable frozen turkey, their new friendship quickly blossoms into laughter and shared American dreams. This funny and moving play gives a big-hearted voice to the Asian immigrant experience.
