A spokesperson describes the event as follows:
“...This part-play, part-rock concert tells the powerful story of a Khmer Rouge survivor returning to Cambodia after three decades. As his daughter prepares to prosecute one of the regime's most notorious war criminals, they must confront their shared history through the healing power of music. The production features the music of LA-based band Dengue Fever, whose performances initially inspired playwright Lauren Yee to create this compelling work..."
