"Tea, With Music" is about a group of Japanese war brides from World War II, now living in Kansas, who gather for a farewell tea ceremony for one of their friends who has mysteriously passed away.

In honor of the 25th Anniversary of the seminal play "TEA" by critically- acclaimed playwright Velina Hasu Houston, East West Players presents this story as a new world premiere musical.
