Daniel Pang returns home to LA’s Koreatown stepping into an unexpected life. Twenty years after the LA Riots, the family business is gone, his brother is gone, and his parents are disappearing with dementia. As Daniel juggles his parents’ care and idiosyncratic neighbors a flinty young army vet arrives on a mission forcing him to confront his past. PANG SPA is a Los Angeles, K-town dramedy celebrating family, memory and identity through a journey of healing.
PANG SPA is being presented in conjunction with EST/LA’s production of TWO STOP also penned by David Johann Kim.

On the verge of the ’92 LA Riots. A Korean market. A murder scene. A store owner and a neighborhood teenaged girl face off. When her wild card mother arrives, secrets from the past explode in this tiny store. History and histories go head to head as LA starts to burn.
Both productions of PANG SPA and TWO STOP are made possible by LANPP and the Venturous Theatre Fund, a fund of Tides Foundation in addition to support provided by CTG’s LA Artists Residency program.
