 Thanksgiving, 1973; over a bottle of wine–or two–and a questionable frozen turkey, Jane, a recent immigrant from Korea, and Luna, a recent immigrant from the Philippines, reminisce and dream of spreading their wings together in the land of opportunity: disco dancing, learning to drive and trying to find their way to feel at home in their new home, America. The Heart Sellers recently won the 2024 Steinberg/ American Theatre Critics Association Award for best new play.

THE HEART SELLERS is presented through special arrangement with and all authorized performance materials are supplied by TRW PLAYS 1180 Avenue of the Americas, Suite 640, New York, NY 10036. www.trwplays.com

The cast features two talented actors making their Cape Rep debuts, Joy Regullano, an L.A. based writer/actor/comedian who’s television work ranges from writing on Sesame Street and Disney’s Monsters At Work to acting on Barry and Modern Family, as Luna and Zoë Kim, writer/actor and founder of Seoulful Productions (seoulfulproductions.org), a Korean-American women-led 501(c)(3) non-profit organization whose primary mission is to create artistic experiences that celebrate the culture, artistry, and voices of the Korean Diaspora as Jane. Director Nina Zoie Lam, a New York based theater director, dramaturg and performing arts educator who made her Broadway debut on stage in the original company of Miss Saigon, takes the helm of this incredible production.
