TO THE DEATH OF MY OWN FAMILY, by David L. Meth, is coming back to the city after a two week tour through four cities in India: Chennai, Bangalore, Pondicherry and Mumbai, where we had to turn away theater-goers and nearly had a riot. So we decided to do an unplanned, second performance. It was standing-room-only and standing ovations throughout the tour. Therefore, I would like to invite all to visit my web site where you can take a tour, see a slide show, and read comments from the Indian press, including Time Out Mumbai:

TO THE DEATH OF MY OWN FAMILY is the story of an Afghan-American woman who returns to Afghanistan to help her father escape and witnesses the slaughter of her entire family. She then has to justify her journey and reclaim her citizenship during an interrogation when she returns to the United States.
