In this original operetta, four vocalists portray the experiences of a Japanese American family from Bainbridge Island in 1937, revealing the emotions and obstacles of characters torn apart and trapped on both sides of the Pacific Ocean during World War II. The performance will be followed by a panel discussion and Q&A about the WWII incarceration of Japanese Americans set in motion by Executive Order 9066. 

This work has been further developed thanks to an award from the City of Bothell Arts Commission and is performed in partnership with McMenamins History.  

There will be interpreters provided at the event. Doors open at 6 PM PT with programing to start at 7 PM PT.

The event is free with pre-registration.
