Los Angeles, CA, May 10, 2018. How far would you go to meet your celebrity crush? What if he was dead? Ai moves from Japan to America to find her own River Phoenix. She encounters culture shocks, miscommunications because of language barrier, and she tries to keep 3 promises she made to her father: No religion, No guns, No drugs. She is lucky that she is still alive today. She tells her tragic story in hilarious ways. MY OWNPRIVATERIVERPHOENIX opens at the Hollywood Fringe Festival June 1 at Studio C – 6448 Santa Monica Blvd, Hollywood CA 90038
My Own Private River Phoenix was accepted and performed at Los Angeles Women’s theater Festival two years in a row. *
