Why English?

Back to What's On

Why English?

An Indian woman questions her life in the post colonial era. English unknowingly forced on her, leaves her with an identity crisis. Questioned your identity? Come! Maybe you’ll find some answers. Inspired by personal experiences and interactions. Interactive set with beautiful fabrics. Powerful, engaging and great comic timing. Draws you in and leaves you feeling warm and wholesome. You are invited to life!
