In 2008 I was on a plane between Chicago and New York, and I told a gentleman on my row that I was going to be performing in Beijing during the Olympics and I'd like to have Beyond the Chariots translated into as many languages as possible. He said, I think our church could translate it to Korean. They did, and thanks to them there were North Koreans in the audience who were able to understand the play! In 2010 I brought the play to Seoul, where Korean translations were developed for another of my plays, Big Fish/Little Worm.
Here are the places we performed on that trip:
