Description

A co-writer of Disney’s Raya and the Last Dragon, Qui Nguyen penned this humorous fish-out-of-water play set in the American South. A Vietnamese family moves to Arkansas, looking to make a go of it and encountering a number of bumps along the trail. Did we mention there’s puppetry, action scenes and a doppelganger of the playwright inserting himself into the story?
