Wild Goose Dreams, by Hansol Jung with original score by Paul Castles (Cycle 19)
GMTWP alum Paul Castles (Cycle 19) will compose the music for a new play by Hansol Jung entitled WILD GOOSE DREAMS (Among the Dead). The play will be produced at The Public Theatre in NYC in April of 2019.
The play follows Minsung, a “goose father” and a South Korean man whose wife and daughter have moved to the United States for a better life. Deeply lonely, he escapes onto the internet and meets Nanhee, a young defector forced to leave her family behind in North Korea. Amidst the endless noise of the modern world, where likes and shares have taken the place of love and touch, Minsung and Nanhee try their best to be real for each other. But after a lifetime of division and separation, is connection possible?
Tony nominee Leigh Silverman (Violet, Chinglish, The Outer Space) directs this strikingly original play about two people, and two cultures, forced to choose between family and freedom.
