Paul G. Heller - Playwright

Coming Home

(February to May, 2021 on Zoom, Same Boat Theater)  Five years ago Guddu abandoned his family, leaving his sister, Isha and Amrita, his mother, in the lurch.  When he returns with bizarre stories and extravagant demands, he threatens what he perceives as their delicate world.  But Amrita and Isha have built more than a business; they are not the same people Guddu left behind.  The play is a universal tale that examines women’s freedom and choices in India’s system of patriarchy.  Written collaboratively by Paul Heller (San Francisco), director Piyush Kumar (Mumbai) and a cast from India and the Bay Area.
