Reviews
Love is a loony business in Julia Cho’s wryly beguiling new play, The Language Archive, making its world premiere at South Coast Repertory. Commissioned by New York’s Roundabout Theatre Company, The Language Archive revolves around George, a professional linguist who’s a dud at communication—especially with his love-hungry wife, Mary, who’s set to leave him.
Personal life
As of 2010, Cho and her husband live in West Los Angeles.
