Published to celebrate the 30th anniversary year of Kali Theatre this is
a brand new book of 30 monologues and duologues spoken by South Asian
characters to be performed by actors from a South Asian/dual heritage
background in auditions, workshops and acting classes.
Drawn from, or adapted from the rich collection of full-length plays by
women writers of South Asian descent that Kali Theatre have developed
and presented over the past 30 years, this collection is a celebratory,
revolutionary and necessary addition for actors and performers. From
writers such as Rukhsana Ahmad and Nessah Muthy to new writers
commissioned as part of Kali's SOLOS series curated during lock-down,
this anthology captures a mix of powerful and original work.
This vital collection features a concise history of Kali Theatre's
origins and a full list of the plays that Kali Theatre has publicly
presented over the past 30 years, making it a celebratory offering from
one of the UK's most inspiring theatre companies.
