Ready For Company and Other Family Tales is a one-woman play about family and legacy. An inheritance of stories and unfinished quests from this Jewish-Japanese-American family tree.

With a complicated family history, Kim excavates meaning from small remembered moments, inherited souvenirs, the oft-repeated family tales (as well as silent secrets) left for her to unpack. Told with music, movement and “show-and-tell” objects, this one-woman journey of nostalgia and discovery portrays with humor the beautiful and enigmatic paths of immigration – and what we choose to carry forward.

Refreshments will be served!
