The Good Manners of Colonized Subjects is a solo play about a human animal, fragmented by colonization, who journeys through memoir and myth to confront fear and reclaim lost poetry and myth, indigenous to her spirit, collective to the species. Written, directed and performed by Shebana Coelho, who is originally from India, now based in New Mexico. The play interweaves poetry, monologues, storytelling and dance inspired by flamenco and Indian classical dance and theater. The poetry/monologues are in English...with threads of Urdu, Spanish, Konkani, Mongolian. Duration: 75 minutes.

fosters open-hearted connections across cultures and communities, and to what feels distant and different within us,
