    This play is a ghost story, carrying a heavy theme of loss, family trauma and ghosts of the past on its back. It is a perfect story of believable relationships and characters and their journey to rekindle their broken family bond.

    A powerful journey towards understanding identity and working through family trauma. Moving and well done.

    Playwrights Foundation highly recommends HALF OF CHOPSTICKS, which excelled to the Finalist round (top 35) for the 44th annual Bay Area Playwrights Festival out of 755 plays. Our community of readers felt this play best represented the mission of our festival. This work engaged us, inspired us, moved us, and was an outstanding example of transformative storytelling. Our local Bay Area Literary Council commends HALF OF CHOPSTICKS as a compelling, relevant, cathartic new work which should be produced now. Congratulations! #BAPF2021

    Leave it to Stephanie Kyung Sun Walters to write a play about family trauma and identity that is unlike any play that treads these often traveled waters in the theatre. This is a ghost story where the magic is just understood as being something normal. It's a play that doesn't have a neat happy ending but concludes the way it needs to. People don't forgive and forget but they make space in their lives to understand each other a little more.
