Monsoon Festival of Performing Arts Presents, Meena’s Dream

Surrey Arts Centre19 Aug '16 to 20 Aug '16 @ 6:00 PM - 10:00 PM
  • Monsoon Festival of Performing Arts Presents, Meena’s Dream
Actress and Playwright Anu Yadav performs a tale of nine year‐old Meena, who wishes her mother had the medicine she can’t afford. By night, Hindu God Lord Krishna begs her to battle the ‘Worry Machine’ to save the universe from destruction. Alternating between imagination and reality, Meena must face her deepest fears, and keep dreaming of a world where everyone has enough. A fantastical world Directed by Patrick Crowley and with an original score of South Indian classical traditions, jazz and indie folk.
 
“… poetic… undeniably powerful… gives voice to the troubling conditions of some Americans from a part of the world we don’t see enough of on stages.” — The Washington Post
 
“Quite simply, Yadav is incredible!” — Broadway World
