Dramatic Comedy

Vuthy Vichea is sixteen years old, Cambodian American. He loves hip hop and Dungeons and Dragons. He has thick-ass glasses. He is a weird kid in a place where weirdness can be fatal: Long Beach, California. Since his best friend moved and his mother died, the only person he can talk to is a human skull he keeps hidden in a cookie jar. Year Zero is a comedic drama about young Cambodian Americans — about reincarnation, reinvention, and ultimately, redemption.

"A very smart, sweet, honest and uncommonly moving new play... Michael Golamco is a significant new dramatic voice." - Chicago Tribune

"A delicate portrait of lost souls attempting to discover their roots and navigate awkward relationships with one another... Incisive, both dramatically and thematically, leading to a haunting and hopeful climax. Critic's Pick!" - Backstage
