Diana Son's 'Satellites' at Aurora Theatre Begins Jan.25

Aurora Theatre Company proudly presents the West Coast Premiere of Diana Son's recent Off-Broadway hit Satellites. Kent Nicholson directs. Satellites plays January 25 through March 2 at the Aurora Theatre in Berkeley.

"In Satellites, Nina and Miles, a couple who have just moved from Manhattan to Brooklyn with their newborn daughter, find no stability in their new home. When they move into a predominantly black neighborhood undergoing gentrification, the Korean-American architect and her African-American husband are welcomed by a brick thrown through the front window. The hole it creates opens the house up to a host of unexpected problems as they discover a 21st century world in which tradition, social order, and economic and sexual boundaries are still constantly in flux. Satellites details a complicated American social order struggling to rearrange itself," explain press notes.

The cast features Michael Asberry, Darren Bridgett, Lisa Kang, Julie Oda, Michael Gene Sullivan, and Ayla Yarkut.
