Among the Dead

About the show

In 1975, Korean-American Ana Woods travels to Seoul to scatter her estranged father's ashes. A bellboy who appears as Jesus gives her a journal that draws her into the story of her parents: her father Luke, an American soldier in Burma in 1944, and Number Four, a Korean comfort woman. Their histories cross again at a Seoul bridge in 1950, as the play reveals the violence behind the family mystery.
