Once again, Chambers Stevens has written a brilliant play that is truly brought to life by the cast, in this case Orange County native Brigitte Ngo-Trinh. Make sure you come on an empty stomach to get the full effect of this amazing performance....

Up front: Brigette was my Scholarship mentee for 2019. I had no creative connection to the show.
Holy cow this show is great. Not only is the story of a girl discovering her heritage interesting, especially through the lens of cultural food dishes, but Brigette is a fantastic storyteller! She's honest, connected, and it's hard to believe that the show isn't a first-hand account with her simply walking us through the most important moment in her life.
A tight script and fluid direction by Chambers Stevens along with Brigette's openness and easy relationship with the audience makes PHO GIRL an eye-opening, informative, and if you're lucky enough to sit in the right spot, tasty evening of theater. Highly recommended!...
