PALOMAR PERFORMING ARTS PRESENTS ‘KENTUCKY’
Palomar Performing Arts, the arts department at Palomar College in San Marcos, will open a production of Leah Nanako Winkler’s comedy-drama “Kentucky” tonight. Directed by Michael Mufson, the play is about Hiro, a 30-something Japanese American who returns from New York to her Kentucky hometown, determined to stop her sister’s wedding to a born-again Christian. Armed only with anti-anxiety pills and the baggage of her dysfunctional upbringing, Hiro confronts forgotten friends, former flames and the family she fled seven years earlier. 7:30 p.m. today, Saturday, and May 13 and 14; 2:30 p.m. Sunday and May 15. Studio Theatre, Palomar College, 1140 W. Mission Drive, San Marcos $10-$15. (760) 744-1150. palomarperforms.com
