This production of Arclight Rep is like nothing I've ever seen before. It was moving and funny and it made you think. The singing by Melissa Locsin is entertaining and Brian Rivera really shows two sides of the same character. I recommend a person from any background to come see it. You learn specifics to Korean background, but I think it applies to just about any immigrant story. This is a Must See! Collapse

Amazing acting by Esperanza Catubig and Melissa Locsin. They move seemlessly from young girls in Korea to aging women in the United States. The show is longer then I would have liked but I am not sure what I would have cut out. This was my introduction to Arclight and it certainly will not be my last. Collapse
