Boundless Theater and producer Tommaso Cartia will present BOY MEETS GIRL - The Trials & Tribulations Of A Queer Man Living Under A Curse - written by Chetan Rao and Nalini Sharma and directed by David James Parr.
This unique and dynamic autobiographical coming-of-rage show is a life-affirming, irresistibly funny, and profoundly moving story chronicling the journey of self-discovery of an Indian American Drag queer performer living in NYC, struggling to find peace with his roots, his identity, and his desire for love and success. The play pays homage to the "boy-meets-girl" Bollywood tradition by reenacting popular pieces in the form of drag acts, as Chetan undergoes a figurative and literal transformation to shake off the "curse" and finally meet his true self.
The creative team includes Chetan Rao (Actor/Drag Artist/Writer), Nalini Sharma (Playwright), David James Parr (Director), Tommaso Cartia (Producer for Boundless Theater), Maria Weyer (Production Assistant/Stage Manager)
The theme song "Shadows" is written by Chetan Rao and produced by Chris Chianesi
The production will be presented as part of the 2025 Queerly Festival with FRIGID New York at UNDER St. Marks (94 St Marks Pl, New York, NY 10009) on Saturday, June 21 at 9:00pm. Tickets are available for advance purchase.
