Last weekend, Atlanta's own Horizon Theatre, in conjunction with East by Southeast and Asian American Voices for Education, gave Atlanta the final shows of THE HEART SELLERS by Lloyd Suh and directed by Michelle Chan.

An intermission-less, two-character, conversational-centric play that focuses on a pair of women's specific immigrant experiences—marked with loneliness, hopes, fears, and puzzlements big and small—Pulitzer Prize finalist Lloyd Suh's absorbing, touching, and occasionally (thankfully) very funny play explores the emotional tug-of-war between comfortable, familiar cultural traditions left behind and the need to accept, learn, and assimilate to the often confounding realities of their new home environment—a sometimes exciting, but sometimes heartbreaking concept that many first-generation immigrants know all too well. Continues at South Coast Repertory through November 16, 2025.
