join us Thursday, April 20, at 8:00 p.m. at the Whiney Humanities
Center (53 Wall Street, New Haven, CT) for a performance by the South Asian
American theater group Arth.
Arth is a South Asian American theater group from the Bay Area that
focuses on exploring social issues relevant to the South Asian American
community through theater. Arth (signifying meaning), through sketches,
poetry, improvisations and monologues, attempts to give a voice to the
concerns, queries and confusion of today's South Asian young diasporic
community, undoubtedly American by location, language and behavior, but
inescapably South Asian, by socialization, value system and legacy.
The opportunity presented to Yale students through this performance
is both novel and exciting. The mode of communication is very new
in expression of South Asian American identity, and the issues engaged
in the performance pertain to individuals and the community as a whole.
Tickets are $2 for students, and $5 for adults. Please contact Shivan
Mehta (203 436-3293) for more information or to reserve tickets.. |
