"Aftermath Liturgy" - New Works Commissioned Play by Min Kahng

Aftermath Liturgy is an original play by acclaimed playwright, composer, and lyricist Min Kahng (Happy Pleasant Valley, The Four Immigrants), commissioned by Contemporary Asian Theater Scene (CATS).

This intimate theatrical experience explores how belief, identity, and community evolve when long-held certainties begin to shift. Featuring live music, projected lyrics, and moments of audience participation, the performance invites you to sing along, reflect, and be part of a shared gathering.

Blending storytelling, music, and ritual, Aftermath Liturgy is a moving exploration of loss, discovery, and the search for meaning and belonging.
