After Dobkins' untimely death in 2001, Wetzel was inspired to do a show in memory of her friend. The sixty-minute piece was based on thirty-five interviews, along with information from written sources.\n <sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-ftnt_ref2_2-0\">\n <a class=\"\" href=\"#cite_note-ftnt_ref2-2\">\n [2]\n </a>\n </sup>\n </p>\n <p>\n The play tells the story of a family that includes a mother and two boys, with a Japanese teapot becoming the mother's head and two tea cups and napkins becoming her sons. Through objects animated by six black-clad performers, the story of the family's forced removal, incarceration at Topaz, and enlistment of one son in the army is portrayed, as well as the attack on Pearl Harbor, President\n <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"https://encyclopedia.densho.org/wiki/Franklin_D._Roosevelt\" title=\"Franklin D.
