In Play 1 a Korean family living in America are struggling with the divorce of the parents divorce, coping with the fact that their father has returned home from Korea after years, and the separation of their family. The Playwright is called "American Hwangap". This Playwright will make you laugh and cry. It truly relates to modern struggles of families. Another one of my favorite Playwrights was "Animals Out of Paper". The play is about a woman who's life is a mess. A fan of her's comes to ask her to teach his student. Not to give away to much, this play is full of romance, sorrow, and pain. It is definitely a great play.

Opinion: 

This book is a great read for an interested actor. I enjoyed the relations you get to the characters. I feel like I know the people in the stories. As, great as the plays were, the book had one fault....The language. Due to the vulgar words, I would only recommend this book to people over 13. Other than that, this book was great! I laughed, I cried, I felt like I was literally in the audience at a Broadway play. The book was enchanting...Four stars!
