This Exquisite Corpse
written by Mia Chung
directed by KenPrestininzi
A Korean woman moves from Korea to New Jersey with her GI husband and their son. The effort to build a life and make friends—as well as learn English—has literally split her into pieces and even alienated from her own tongue. Forming a surreal “chorus,” her body parts struggle to express themselves despite misinterpretation and cultural appropriation. Chung’s plays have been presented in the UK, South Korea and leading US theaters.
