Play Synopsis: Roopa is off on her first trip out of the country and far far away from her dust-collecting job as an IT consultant. Through her explorations of Vietnam, Kenya, and Mexico she realizes something - that life’s greatest memories are one’s affairs to remember. Adventure chasers know this. Soulful nomads know this. Now she knows it too. But, is knowing enough to unveil this affair she is having with life, or will she return to her regular scheduling like it never happened?
A space where theatre intersects with travel. A series of workshops, short films, showcases, and theatre based fundraisers that explore themes such as the alienation that comes with otherness, the importance of empathy, and freedom in its many forms and restrictions. Performance elements will include a series of monologues, full length plays, and short-form content based on lived experiences from around the globe, shedding light on the small universal joys we all share, the quiet arrival of loneliness and grief, and the spontaneity of encountering someone so far outside your world that it feels destined.
