SAIGON

In a bustling restaurant in both 1950s Vietnam and 1990s France, strangers gather to eat, drink, sing, argue, remember, and mourn. Across decades and continents, lives intersect as people reckon with exile, longing, and the lasting impact of history.

Created by acclaimed director Caroline Guiela Nguyen, Saigon is an epic and deeply personal portrait of migration, memory, and belonging. As characters search for lost homes, lost loves, and lost versions of themselves, ordinary encounters unfold into a sweeping story of resilience and connection.

By turns intimate and expansive, joyful and heartbreaking, Saigon is a richly diverse theatrical experience that celebrates the lives shaped by movement across borders and generations.
