MILWAUKEE REPERTORY THEATER
— By Lloyd Suh —
Finding Direction in the Land of Opportunity.
Funny and deeply moving, this World Premiere by Lloyd Suh (“The Chinese Lady”) gives voice to the Asian immigrant experience in the 1970s when the landmark Hart-Celler Act granted thousands of professional workers a new path to citizenship. But for new Americans Jane and Luna, life in the USA with their workaholic husbands has left them feeling isolated and invisible. One Thanksgiving – over sips of wine and a questionable frozen turkey – they reminisce and dream of spreading their wings together in the land of opportunity: disco dancing, learning to drive and even a visit to Disneyland. With grace and dignity, this powerful play asks: “Would you give up your heart to make a new home?”

MILWAUKEE CHAMBER THEATRE
— By Eliana Pipes with original music by B~Free from the HOOPS Project by Nicole Acosta —
Local art begets local art as multi-disciplinary Milwaukee artist Nicole Acosta’s internationally acclaimed HOOPS Project comes to the stage.
Hoop earrings express complex, layered, and beautiful individual and community identities across cultures and generations. Through in-depth interviews crafted into an evening of monologues in the tradition of theater documentarians like Anna Deavere Smith, Eve Ensler, and KJ Sanchez, HOOPS centers stories of visibility and individuality, community and collectivism, and survival and transcendence in a space to celebrate culture as it explores the potent resonance of these symbols to those who identify most strongly with them.
