LOG KYA KAHENGE | OCT 18–NOV 3, 2024
In collaboration with Lyric Arts & South Asian Arts & Theater House
Written by Aamera Siddiqui
Directed by Suzy Messerole
Sofia Khan has been given the recipe for a perfect life: take one perfect job at a prestigious hospital; add in a perfect fiancè, stir in one high-end condo, and top it off with an upcoming epic Indian wedding of mega proportions. A list of ingredients that should surely guarantee happiness. But beneath the layers lies a painful truth that no one wants to talk about - a truth that keeps rising to the top, threatening to ruin the perfect mix for Sofia.
Log Kya Kahenge is a famous Hindi and Urdu saying that translates as “What Will People Say?” If you’ve grown up in a Desi home, you’ve most likely heard it. This brand new world premiere by Aamera Siddiqui explores the stigma around mental health and what happens when “What will people say?” becomes the gauge by which we live our lives.
