SALAAM Theatre
Geeta Citygirl, Artistic Director
invites you to a
Special Fundraiser Performance of

Good Girls Don't, But Indian Girls Do
Written and Performed by VIJAI NATHAN
Directed by Rebecca Kendall

A portion of the proceeds will go to SALAAM Theatre in its efforts to continue to support, nurture and develop emerging and established artists.

ABOUT THE SHOW:  National and international comedienne Vijai Nathan presents her solo-show, "Good Girls Don't, But Indian Girls Do," a funny and poignant exploration of the struggle to discover, create and claim an Indian American identity. Vijai breaks every taboo as she exposes the underbelly of an Indian American family. She takes you through growing up Indian in a Jewish community; her discovery of sex in a repressed Hindu household; and how she finds herself along the way. It's "Gandhi" meets "Pretty in Pink."

"You'll be envying this comic's writing, observational talents, and her great ability to perform diverse characters." - Amelia David, BackStage.

CREDITS: BackStage chose Vijai as one of the Top 10 Standout Stand-ups of 2003, she represented America at the Smirnoff International Comedy Festival in South Africa last fall, and she recently appeared on the BBC, ABC's "20/20," PBS and the Oxygen Network.  Vijai Nathan was part of the launch event for SALAAM Theatre way back in October 2000 and is one of our treasured company members.
