When I first heard of setting the story of Japanese Internment Camps as a musical, I was skeptical. I was wrong. This is one of the most moving, loving, fulfilling musicals I have ever seen. I was moved to tears more than once because the human story is presented here. I am thrilled to be a witness to the success of Allegiance as it moved from conception to fruition. Thank you so much, George Takei, for your courage, your advocacy, and your life.
