Inspired by George Takei's childhood experience, the musical tells the story of the Kimura family, Japanese Americans forced from their home into a World War II internment camp after the attack on Pearl Harbor. As young Sam Kimura enlists to prove his patriotism while his sister Kei and their father resist from within, the family is torn apart by impossible choices between loyalty to country and loyalty to conscience. A powerful story of family, love, and the price of the American dream.
