NEW PLAY BY LILY ABHA CRATSLEY
CURRENT PROJECT
New Play, "ABCD - American Born Confused Desi", by emerging South Asian playwright, Lily Abha Cratsley unravels the relationships between a daughter, a mother, and a Nani as they navigate their dual identities and unburden themselves of deep-seated intergenerational trauma. ABCD is a deep dive into intergenerational trauma and the legacy of the real South Asian hate group, the Dotbusters, that rose to prominence in New Jersey in the '80s. This play gives voice to the female perspective, the grace, the fire, the indignation, the sorrow, and ultimately the comforting joy in one another that is felt by these women as they face each other and themselves.
Presented in collaboration with Greenway Arts Alliance
