    Why do we leave our homes to start new lives? What are we hoping to find when we arrive? How does this affect the generations after us? Based on his life as a first-generation Filipino-American and intertwining stories from his ensemble, theatre artist Justin Jain weaves a tapestry of movement, music and dialogue that asks these questions. With Scott McPheeters (of Kun Yang Lin and Dancers and BoanDanz Action), Barrymore-nominated actor James Ijames (performer and playwright of The Threshing Floor, a biographical solo about author James Baldwin), Barrymore-nominated actress Genevieve Perrier and StorySlam winner and professional actress Leah Walton. Directed by Becky Wright.
