You for Me for You at Guthrie Theater

WORLD PREMIERE by Mia Chung
Directed by Yury Urnov
In Association with Ma-Yi Theater Company

Two North Korean sisters—facing starvation at the hands of a dizzyingly corrupt regime—make a bargain with a smuggler to flee to the United States. When one of the sisters is denied passage because she is too weak to make the treacherous trans-Pacific crossing, the other sister makes a promise to race across time and space to save her.
