Made up of second-generation survivors of the Khmer Rouge genocide, the theatrical production “See You Yesterday”<\/strong>\u00a0explores the fragmented stories these young artists have inherited from their parents and grandparents. As the performers unpack the long shadow of a genocidal regime, they transform isolated memories into a shared story of courage and hope.<\/p>\n After two preview performances in Phnom Penh in March 2016, the World Premiere of \u201cSee You Yesterday\u201d<\/i>\u00a0happened on July 17th, 2016 at the\u00a0Ubumuntu Arts Festival<\/a>\u00a0in Kigali, Rwanda. The cast then traveled to the Kigeme refugee camp in Southern Rwanda, where they played three days for audiences of over 5,000 Congolese refugees each day and conducted workshops and hands-on training with\u00a0youth.\u00a0To view the visual report from the Rwandan tour of \u201cSee You Yesterday,\u201d click\u00a0here<\/a><\/strong>.<\/em><\/p>\n In the spring of 2018, the production was revived with the original cast and toured Battambang, Phnom Penh, and Siem Reap with free, open-air performances for the public. Additionally, the troupe held post-performance workshops with teachers-in-training, supporting the development of curriculum using theatrical arts to foster perceptual change, dialogue, and understanding around some of the most difficult subjects in their recent history.
