Excerpts from Fire in the New World
Written and directed by Rick Shiomi
Performed by Eric Sharp, Gabriele Angieri, Jeannie Lander, Audrey Park, and Seth Patterson
Sam Shikaze, hard boiled private eye, fights crime in Vancouver’s Japantown and beyond in the years after WWII. In this detective comedy, the beautiful Japanese American wife of an ambitious real estate developer goes missing, and Sam is on the case. Fire in the New World is smart and fun, chock full of social commentary and sly intrigue.
