Leah's Train February 7, 2009

The National Asian American Theatre Company (NAATCO), which is known for its revivals of western classics performed by all-Asian-American casts since 1989, will expand its mission to include world premieres about non-Asian peoples performed by an all-Asian cast with the world premiere of 'Leah's Train.' In the play, three generations of love and anger are ignited when a young doctor refuses to attend her grandmother's funeral. What transpires after she boards a train, and its destination, mysteriously becomes her Russian Jewish family's untold history.
