Fish Eyes is Back

(but only for a day-Nov 5)...a Roundtable on Nov 14...and "A Drop of Blood" Returns!

On Sunday, November 5, at 7pm, there will be a special performance at Theatre Passe Muraille of "Fish Eyes" by Anita Majumdar. In case you haven't heard, this one-woman show about the trials and tribulations of Meena, an exceptional Indian dancing teenager who would trade it all in just to be a 'normal' high school girl, has been invited to the "Other Festival" in India. This performance is to raise the dough so she can go! Won't Kalyani Aunty be happy. If you haven't seen this show, now is your chance; and if you have seen it, you can enjoy it again.

Our November Roundtable will be held on Tuesday, November 14, at 7pm at the 5th Element restaurant on Bay St. (4 streets South of Bloor). Ishwar Mooljee will be leading the reading and discussion of "Borderline" by Hanif Kureishi. The play is set in London, England, and revolves around the racial riots and attacks by Neo Fascist youth against the East Indian community during the 70-80s. As always, anyone is welcome to participate in the reading/discussion around the table. There is no admission charge, just come as you are! (and feel free to come earlier, around 6, if you'd like to chat, eat, whatever...)
