Description

San Francisco Playhouse will ring in 2024 with the World Premiere of Minna Lee’s “My Home on the Moon.” In this epic sci-fi journey into the metaverse, business is booming for a formerly failing pho restaurant in the middle of a gentrified neighborhood after it receives help from a mysterious marketing consultant. Things are not all they seem as the restaurant’s waiter Mai discovers artificial intelligence-powered simulations may be taking over reality. With the help of astral projecting friends and ancient Vietnamese ancestors, and armed with bánh xèo, chả giò, and delicious pho, Mai must balance the perfection of artificial life with the harshness of reality. A finalist for the 2024 Bay Area Playwrights Festival and semi-finalist for Ashland New Plays Festival, “My Home on the Moon” received developmental readings at UC Santa Cruz’s Rainbow Theater Festival and Bucharest Inside the Beltway. This imaginative and innovative new play is helmed by Mei Ann Teo.
