A funny, moving play that explores family, gentrification, and legacy, and more through the multi-layered and complex relationships of A-Poh, Lai-Fa, Amy, and Steven. The siblings are boldly introduced and deftly rendered and A-Poh's journey of grappling with both her legacy as a single mother and business owner while navigating cognitive decline is potent and exciting. I loved the theatrical playing with time and space to help illustrate A-Poh's plight and the poignant ending scene between her and Lai-Fa.
