In Dennis Carroll's Age Sex Location, four generations of a local
family confront the complexities and perils of cyberspace. When a
computer is brought into their home, the Fujioka family is introduced to,
among other things, Internet gambling and online chat-room dating--both of
which lead to unexpected consequences. The cast includes a four-person
Compuchorus--a high-tech Greek chorus that voices Internet jargon, pop-up
advertising, and Instant Messages; lets the audience know what's
happening on the computer monitor; and effectively transforms the family
computer into a multi-faceted, complex, and sinister character.
Please note: Some scenes contain partial nudity and violence.

The production includes set design by Dan Gelbmann and costumes by Alvin
Chan. The cast features Kumu veterans Ron Encarnacion, M.J. Gonzalvo,
Stu Hirayama, Kathy Hunter, Marcus Oshiro, Ryan Sueoka, Marya
Takamori-Prickett, and Wendell Yamada. James Cunningham, Hester Kamin,
Frank Katasse, Tom Offer-Westort, Michelle O`Malley, and Jaedee-Kae
Vergara will be making their Kumu debut with Age Sex Location.
