GHOSTS IN THE PLAGUE YEAR, a play by Dennis Carroll based on a story by Dennis Carroll and Bob Okazako, is now playing at the Kumu Kahua Theatre through September 26.
Chinatown, 1900: In a seedy brothel, men from all walks of life gather to enjoy opium, drinks and the company of women. Outside, the bubonic plague has begun to spread, and the government will do anything to stop it.
Dennis Carroll, a founding member of Kumu Kahua and the author of WAY OF A GOD and AGE SEX LOCATION, unleashes a brutal and sensual new play that brings to life a dark chapter in Hawai‘i's history. This play contains adult language and content..
