Dreams of a Picture Bride

Sudden Enlightenment Theatre returns to Theater for the New City for the premiere of Dreams of a Picture Bride, based on the fascinating true story of Korean picture brides who emigrated to Honolulu from 1912 to 1924. Written and directed by Eun-Hee Kim and choreographed by Hey Jeong Yoon, the one-hour dance theater uses dance, text, slides and music collage to tell the story of the Korean mail-order brides who bravely moved to Hawaii to marry Korean men who worked in the sugar cane fields.
