The Sandman

Take a nap with us as we enter The Dreaming to discuss Netflix's adaptation of the Neil Gaiman's seminal comic book series, The Sandman, which is finally making its live action debut after literally decades of attempts. We dive into a (semi-spoilery) discussion about this series about anthropomorphized concepts, and how they influence and learn from the mess that is humanity. (Spoiler warning: we do discuss some major plot points so we recommend listening after you've seen the series)

From Ma-Yi Theater Company (The Chinese Lady, Teenage Dick) comes a generation-spanning new journey through the historical and fantastical. Mixing traditional Korean fables with the horrors of the Korean War, Daniel K. Isaac’s epic new play is a funny and deeply moving analog for the experiences of the Korean American diaspora. Isaac deftly moves his characters through time, tracing the legacies of trauma that are passed from one generation to the next, and the various coping mechanisms each one uses to soldier on.

Playing August 23 - September 18 at the  La Mama's Ellen Stewart Theater in New York City
