is the story of a young Catholic South Asian Canadian woman's
complicated journey into womanhood against the backdrop of the
expectations of her immigrant parents.</span><b><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;"> </span></b><span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;">The
play, however, attempts to move past the cliché construct in which the
sexual liberalism of North American culture clashes with the sexual
conservatism of South Asian culture. It touches on some of the deeper
dilemmas involved in the journey into womanhood, transcending the
specificity of South Asian culture.<b> Janice
