SALAAM Theatre
invites you to a
Special SALAAM 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.
