Following a sold-out hit run at Park Theatre earlier this year, Kim’s Convenience is transferring to Riverside Studios. Adam Blanshay Productions, in association with Park Theatre, are behind Ins Choi’s award-winning play which inspired the CBC and Netflix’s global hit TV comedy adaptation of the same name. Kim's Convenience was Ins’ debut play winning the Best New Play award and the Patron's Pick at the 2011 Toronto Fringe festival before touring Canada. It was then adapted into a TV series of the same name on the CBC and Netflix for 5 seasons. The comedy drama follows the hilarious and heart-warming tale of a Korean family-run convenience store where Appa grapples with his changing neighbourhood and the growing schism between his first-generation immigrant values and those of his second-generation children.
