HISTORY AND MUSIC COMBINE 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. While an onstage band brings foot-stomping Cambodian oldies and contemporary Dengue Fever hits to life, the electric play shifts back and forth in time as the father reveals family secrets that exhibit the enduring power of music and the human spirit.
