Reviews for 30 Monologues and Duologues for South Asian Actors: Celebrating 30 Years of Kali Theatre's South Asian Women Playwrights

This is a superb addition to the growing canon of plays exploring the diverse lives and multiple perspectives of the global majority, particularly the lives of women, and specifically celebrating the profound achievements of Kali Theatre, set up in 1991. * National Drama * I found the monologues educational, enlightening and insightful. For a South Asian performer, where culturally specific scripts are not always readily available, I feel that this could be [/] is a very useful resource. * Word Matters, The Society of Teachers of Speech and Drama *
