The play takes place in the mid-1980s. Students attending a Catholic all-boys high school deal with their use of pidgin English when a substitute teacher from Kansas takes over their classroom. Meanwhile, the substitute struggles to learn local ways in both the classroom and in the home of her Japanese-American fiancé’s parents.
Preshow dinner catered by AK’s Cafe.
