About:
This bilingual play transforms the language barrier into a stage for
unlikely encounters: a delayed train reuniting strangers, a Duolingo
lesson straining a relationship. Speaking the same words doesn’t always
mean understanding one another, for language is more than a
communication tool, it's a vessel for identity, memory, and emotion. As
we try to bridge the gap between what we say and what we mean, how much
gets lost, twisted, or buried? You So blends realism and surrealism to
reflect how relationships operate simultaneously in the literal and the
emotional – in translation, and in feeling.
