In The Refugee King, an average American couple hastily takes in a homeless man in the hope of helping him to make a change. In the process, they discover a host of changes they must work through themselves. The Refugee King is a delightfully comedic and challenging story, woven together with music, that will have a soft but firm grip on your soul.

The Refugee King is the best show The WordPlayers has ever produced as a representation of its mission as an organization … beautifully written … culturally relevant.
