Roy Sekigahama's one-act play 'Desert Rock Garden' makes it world premiere at New Village Arts in Carlsbad
The Central Utah Relocation Center, also known as the Topaz Relocation Center, was one of 10 camps during World War II in which Japanese Americans were interned. Housed in crude barracks behind barbed wire fences with armed guards overseeing them, these men, women and children struggled to survive and to maintain the dignity that a shameful U.S. policy sought to deprive them of.
The play was written by Roy Sekigahama, whose parents were interned in a relocation camp, and was workshopped at New Village’s Final Draft New Play Festival in 2019. Its opening this month coincides with the 80th anniversary of President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s executive order that authorized the relocation from the West Coast to internment camps of thousands of Japanese descent.
Befitting his role, Nishikawa “says” as much with his silences, his expressions and his steady but hunched work in the garden as he does with words. Li, who is a graduate of University California San Diego, conveys all of a 12-year-old’s determined spirit.
