This episode of Behind the Play features a conversation between TNB Outreach Coordinator and playwright Jena McLean and playwright Jivesh Parasram, who is currently touring his one-person play Take d Milk, Nah? to theatres in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick.
Take d Milk, Nah? is unlike anything we have presented in the past. Part comedy, part reality check, Parasram’s play tackles enormous issues involving race and culture. A humourous, skeptical take on the identity play, Take d Milk, Nah? blends personal storytelling and ritual to offer the "Hin-dos and Hin-don’ts" of Parasram's upbringing as a multi-ethnic Canadian as well as delivers a candid, funny look at race, religion and nationalism.
For the three performances of Take d Milk, Nah?, which will run at the Open Space Theatre at 55 Whiting Road, we invite you to name your price by choosing one of four different price points: $5, $15, $25, or $35.
