NAATCO (Natl Asian American Theatre Co) Presents
Leah's Train
Friday, February 06, 2009 through Saturday, February 28, 2009
A play by Karen Hartman about three generations of love and anger, ignited when a young doctor refuses to attend her grandmother's funeral.
Length: 1 hr 20 mins Intermission: None Seating: General Admission You choose your seats when you get to the theater.
An all-Asian cast performs the world premiere of LEAH'S TRAIN, a play about three generations of women from a Jewish family whose lineage spreads from Russia to present-day San Francisco. Ruth's refusal to attend her grandmother's funeral triggers a chain of events that transpires after she boards a train, and its destination magically becomes her Russian Jewish family's history. Her grandmother, as a 13-year old Russian girl, her mother as a first generation Russian American who lives on the east coast, and she, a successful doctor of gerontology in San Francisco, all meet in an old freezing train. Jean Randich directs, with Raphael Aranas, Louis Ozawa Changchien, Kristine Haruna Lee, Jennifer Ikeda, and Mia Katigbak.
