The Five Daughters of Indra come to earth to see for themselves what it means to be human. With local and global natural, and unnatural, disasters, and game shows hosted by Guy Fawkes, they experience much more than they bargained for. The latest tragedy in Las Vegas and the recent weather, flood and fire disasters inspired the ShortBurst® RAW Theatre Company at Santa Monica Playhouse to explore unity and compassion in the face of vicarious trauma, surviving the flood of life, separation anxiety and creating a community out of chaos.

 

Helmed by Playhouse co-artistic director Chris DeCarlo and written by Playhouse Playwright-in-Residence Evelyn Rudie, The Daughters of Indra is crafted and performed by Smita Bagla, Martin Cohen, Serena de Stella, Taneirva Dodson, Suzanne Gangursky, Sarah Holguin, Bob Hucul, Cornelia Jonsson, Linda Kohn, Alexandra Lambrakis, Wendy Lamm, Elena Pinto and Berkeley Sanjay, who does double duty as assistant director. Music for Elena’s Song composed by Nathan Boler.

 

Two shows only – Friday, January 26 at 8 pm and Sunday, February 4 at 1:00 pm. And yes, February 4 is Super Bowl Sunday, but you’ll get out in plenty of time to watch the game if you so desire; and if you don’t desire, what better way to spend the day than at the theatre!\n\nThe Daughters of Indra is supported in part by grants from the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors and the Los Angeles County Arts Commission, the City of Santa Monica and the Santa Monica Arts Commission, the Cotkin Family, Pearl and Bill Bordy, and Playhouse PALS.
