The Heart Sellers

Written by Lloyd Suh

Directed by Miranda Cornell

Coming Soon January 31-February 23

Rochelle and Max Levit Stage

Overview

HOW DO YOU FIND FRIENDSHIP IN A NEW WORLD?

In this heartfelt comedic drama set in the backdrop of the ’70s, two recent immigrants, Jane and Luna, cross paths in a grocery store on Thanksgiving. Over wine and a somewhat-questionable frozen turkey, they share laughs, tears, and their American dreams—disco dancing, learning to drive, visiting Disneyland—and discover a kinship that transcends cultural barriers. Filled with the hope and promise of new beginnings, the pair forge a bond from their shared experience of loneliness in a new country.

 

Written with tenderness by award-winning playwright and Guggenheim Fellow Lloyd Suh, this touching narrative explores the immigrant experience with humor and compassion, posing a poignant question: What does it mean to truly call a place home?

 

Director Miranda Cornell comes to Stages with many recent accolades for her work as associate director of The Outsiders—winner of four Tony Awards in 2024, including Best Musical and Best Direction of a Musical—currently playing on Broadway to rave reviews.
