Merrimack Repertory Theater

A one-man show written and performed by Vichet Chum portraying a hotel clerk (Guy) who works the night shift while studying Khmer, the language of Cambodia.  In his quest to learn his family’s native language in preparation for their upcoming trip to Cambodia, Guy delves into the horrific history that brought his parents to America in the first place.
