About the Show

This new work tells the story of two Nuer women who flee Sudan to the sandy shores of San Diego, California, where they face culture shock and prejudice as they adjust to resettlement.

From the show:

December, 2013, Southern Sudan. Two Nuer women flee Juba as chaos breaks out under the regime of President Kiir. Together, they travel from the Kakuma Refugee Camp in Kenya to the sandy shores of San Diego, California, where they face culture shock and prejudice as they adjust to resettlement. The women are paired with an unlikely friend, Roberta - a chainsaw-wielding, outspoken arborist from Alpine, California. Through charity galas, English classes, and rattlesnake scares, these women come together to learn the preciousness of love, intimacy, friendship and sisterhood.

Slow, Disappointing, Ambitious

See it if An interesting story however the acting , staging and lack of focus makes these important issues less than what they should be.

Don't see it if If you enjoy light dramas or musicals . A bare bones production.

Long, Thought-provoking, Slow, Disappointing, Confusing

Don't see it if you require expert acting, staging, costumes, sets, accents, directing, and tight non-repetitious writing, can’t tolerate scream/bad diction Read more
