Written and directed by Ma-Yi Theater's Artistic Director Ralph B. Peña, Vancouver was conceived immediately after live theater was shuttered in MARCH 2020, when Peña reached out to Puppet Director Tom Lee to ask about a collaboration. "I've always wanted to work with Tom on this story," says Peña, "and the form seemed like a perfect fit for the safety requirements of working during the pandemic." Vancouver centers on a Japanese American family who returns to the U.S. from Japan to settle in the Pacific Northwest, and the challenges they face as they try to recalibrate their identities. Presented in partnership with The Chicago International Puppet Festival Theater, Vancouver is an American story told through puppetry.
