Heading EastHeading East
Synopsis:
Heading east is set primarily in San Francisco from 1848-1981. This musical tells the story of Siu Yee Tong, a brazen young man who travels from drought- and famine-ridden China to Gold Rush era San Francisco, determined to be America's next great success story. What follows is his lifelong quest to reinvent himself as a true-blooded American icon, against the tumultuous backdrop of 15 decades of American history. While the narrative spans nearly 150 years, the characters age over the course of a single lifetime.
