Shades of Brown

Rasa

Wednesday 12th November at 7.30pm

 

Can one person’s healthy glow be another’s social stigma?

 

Across the globe money and time is poured into skin tanning or bleaching. From a South African albino to a skin-bleaching Indian bride, Rani Moorthy, with her celebrated mix of warm and powerful story telling, transforms herself into funny and poignant characters who share an ironic kinship through the one thing they cannot hide or hide from - their skin.

 

Comic, bold and deeply moving Shades of Brown is a thought provoking one-woman show directed by Linda Marlowe, recently seen at The Point in her magnificent show Believe.

 

'An incomparable story teller…Moorthy is so sumptuously watchable that its easy to forget there is only one of her on stage'

The Guardian
