Kaahini
by Maya Chowdhry

"A highly original yet thoroughly accessible insight into what it means to be young, Asian and British.

Filled with the powerful and contradictory emotions of adolescence, "Kaahini" is brightly coloured, full of warmth and feeling, and shot through with the darker threads of frustration and anger at the inflexible and inexplicable adult world.

This play, for all its seemingly unfamiliar Asian context, speaks directly to the widest possible audience: anyone with a mother, father, son, daughter, friend or lover will find much to challenge and inspire them here."
