Preview: A Brimful of Asha



Serving up samosa's, laughs and lots of heart, A Brimful of Asha is exactly the type of show Liza and I have been craving this winter. The world premiere has opened to strong buzz and has all the top critics talking! For tickets please click the header.

Show Description:

Real-life mother and son, Asha and Ravi Jain, share the stage and tell this true (and very Canadian) story of generational and cultural clash. When Ravi takes a trip to India his parents decide it is the perfect time to introduce him to potential brides. Ravi is not sold on the idea of getting married-at least not yet-but Asha fears that time is running out.

Ravi Jain is an award winning actor, director, producer and educator. Ravi and his mother tell their story together, letting us into their personal drama. Select Sunday performances take place at Dish Cooking Studio (390 Dupont Street) and include a cooking class with Asha, the performance, and a shared vegetarian Indian meal.
