Auditions for FREE OUTGOING

Bay Area Drama Company announces auditions for

FREE OUTGOING

A Play in English by Anupama Chandrasekhar
Directed by Basab Pradhan

ABOUT THE PLAY

Chennai, India. Present Day. Deepa is every parent's dream. A star student. Hard working. Loved by her teachers. Headed towards a bright future.

Deepa is also that unlucky girl.  The one whose sole sexual indiscretion with a boy in her class is captured on a cell phone camera and goes viral. Aspirations and hopes are crushed as she becomes the target of her community's outrage. And then a nation's outrage.

In this age of unfettered technology and a generation that is fighting to define itself against a backdrop of traditional conservatism, Free Outgoing is a lens into every parent's nightmare.

First performed at the Royal Court Theatre, Jerwood Theatre Upstairs, Sloane Square, London on 8 November, 2007.
