Hear a Moving Post-Play Panel Discussion
Audiobook Break is proud to present the Japanese American Civil Liberties Collection from LA Theatre Works. Today we conclude Sisters Matsumoto with a post-play panel discussion including actor George Takei, who was interned at age five, in discussion with playwright Philip Kan Gotanda, director Tim Dang, and LATW’s Producing Director Susan Lowenberg. The discussion focuses on the forced internment of Japanese Americans during the war, its lasting impacts, and parallels to current events.
