Home > What's on in Bristol > Asian Arts Agency presents Rasa’s Shades of Brown
Written and performed by Rani Moorthy
Directed by Linda Marlowe
Comic, bold and deeply moving, this thought-provoking one-woman show asks: can one person’s healthy glow be another’s social stigma?
A round the globe money and time are poured into 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 into funny and poignant characters who share an ironic kinship through the one thing they cannot hide or hide from – their skin.
Shades of Brown is directed by Linda Marlowe, who also directed Rani Moorthy’s Curry Tales, now one of the UK’s most toured Asian theatre shows. Whatever shade of brown you are or want to be this play will get under the skin.
The performance is a part of regional tour of Shades of Brown organised by Asian Arts Agency.
