 A woman flies from the Philippines to America with a one-way ticket and a suitcase full of stories collected from immigrants who came before her—tales of overseas workers, young lovers, and gossipy church ladies; snapshots of undocumented immigrants, millennial princesses, and first-generation Americans. This world-premiere musical  gives voices to Filipino immigrants navigating old lives and new beginnings, eight-thousand miles from home.
