HISTORY, MUSIC, AND MOVEMENT COLLIDE IN THIS THEATRICAL JOURNEY
Are you ready to rock? This darkly funny, genre-defying play tells the story of a Khmer Rouge survivor returning to Cambodia after thirty years, just as his daughter prepares to prosecute one of the country's most notorious war criminals. With an onstage band bringing foot-stomping Cambodian oldies and contemporary Dengue Fever hits to life, the electric play shifts back and forth in time, revealing family secrets that showcase the enduring power of music and the human spirit.
I am proud to serve as Fight Director for this production, helping bring the show's physical storytelling and action to life with authenticity and intensity.
