Marina is a single mother who spends her days going to the fish store to buy a catfish for soup, and her nights stitching petals on her daughter’s quinceañera dress. When Marina’s local fishmonger passes away and his son Hiroshi takes over the store, Marina and Hiroshi form an unexpected connection that may break them from their routines and help them face what haunts them. An everyday story with elements of magical realism, this is the first fully-staged production of Benjamin Benne’s lyrical play about loneliness, connection, grief, and fish. Directed by senior Elena Milliken and featuring lighting design by senior Emily Yang. Admission: Free and open to the public, however tickets are required, available online at tickets.princeton.edu.
