Houses hold histories, memories, and secrets—whether small or large, whether rented or owned—our homes are a vital part of who we are.

In a moment of mass migration and displacement, Theater Mitu upends Anton Chekhov’s 1903 text "The Cherry Orchard" to explore how families across the globe must again and again find ways to redefine the idea of home.

Interjecting Nobuhiko Obayashi’s 1977 cult horror film HOUSE, text from company conducted interviews, and live music, this technology driven work creates a detailed portrait of what we value, what haunts us, and what gives us the courage to move forward.
