Photos: First Look At CAMBODIAN ROCK BAND At TheatreSquared

The Obie Award-winning play-with-music Cambodian Rock Band featuring songs from Dengue Fever will open in TheatreSquared's West Theatre on February 28 and will run through March 24. See photos from the production below.

This production will also be available for streaming from March 15-25th. Find the stream here.

Backed by a live band playing contemporary Dengue Fever hits and classic Cambodian oldies, this darkly funny, electric new play tells the story of a father who escaped a murderous regime returning home after 30 years in search of his wayward daughter. As the play jumps back in time, it's a rock epic meets thrilling mystery as both are forced to face the music of the past.

Director Nelson T. Eusebio III returns to TheatreSquared after directing last season's Kim's Convenience. 

The music featured in the show is a rollicking mix of classic 1960s-1970s rock music as well as songs from current-day Los Angeles-based band Dengue Fever. The music is performed live on stage by the talented actor/musicians of the show: Greg Watanabe, K Chinthana Sotakoun, Alex Lydon, Jojo Gonzalez, Shawn Mouacheupao, and Eileen Doan. The show's music director is Jason Liebson.
