Kim’s Convenience (Part One)

One of the most iconic plays of its generation, Kim's Convenience by Ins Choi opens inside a Toronto corner store run by a Korean Canadian family. Later adapted into the global hit CBC and Netflix series, the play introduces Appa Kim, who rules his shop with stubborn pride, sharp opinions, and a deep belief that the store is the centre of the community. As customers come and go, we meet Janet, his fiercely independent photographer daughter, whose life and ambitions sit at odds with her father's expectations. When an unexpected offer to buy the store appears, it quietly destabilizes everything Appa thought was certain. Meanwhile, Janet reconnects with Alex, a police officer who was once best friends with her brother Jung, whose long absence begins to take on new significance. Featuring Ins Choi in the titular role of Appa, the comedy crackles even as deeper family tensions begin to surface. Cast: Ins Choi, Brandon McKnight, Esther Chung, Ryan Jinn, Kelly Seo Kim’s Convenience by Ins Choi Listen to Prodigal, Paolo Santalucia's explosive family drama about power and privilege here.

Table for Two (Part One)

“Ghanaian parents don’t talk about sex, and when they do, it’s not very helpful.” Abena Ohemaa Frimpong is thirty-five, accomplished, and dating in Toronto.

On the night she is meant to meet JD45, a man she has grown cautiously excited about, Abby arrives early and waits. As the table stays empty, the evening slips into memories of first love, missed timing, and the quiet pressure of a best friend’s engagement and a mother who wants answers. Faith, family, and romantic history all press in as the minutes stretch. Abby sits with her phone in hand, the chair across from her untouched, and the possibility of connection hanging by a thread.
