THE SITAYANA (or "How to Make an Exit")

The young princess Sita follows her new husband Ram to his kingdom in Ayodhya - only to learn that they have been banished! Refusing to abandon her partner, she joins him in exile, but finds her loyalty tested to surprising lengths. A solo piece based on The Ramayana, the Sitayana is part Hindu epic, part coming of age story, and part break-up play.

"An artful, winkingly shrewd modern transposition of a Hindu myth about love, marriage, betrayal and acceptance." --Hedy Weiss, Chicago Sun-Times
