An epic new play by Daniel K. Isaac (The Chinese Lady), directed by Ralph B. Peña (Among The Dead), Once Upon a (Korean) Time traces the journey of a Korean family from the wars in Korea to the riots in Los Angeles. Told with great humor, irreverence, and elements of magic, Once Upon a (Korean) Time uses traditional Korean fables to examine the thorny legacies of war and trauma.
