ARTISTS AT PLAY'S NEXT PRODUCTION नेहा & Neel Written by Ankita Raturi Directed by Lily Tung Crystal In partnership with Latino Theater Company October 9 to November 16, 2025 Los Angeles Theatre Center
About the play: Neha (नेहा) had such an idea of how to raise her son Neel (नील) in America, but he’s seventeen now, he hardly ever speaks Hindi, and he doesn’t care about seeing India’s famous Hope Diamond. On a cross-country college tour, both Neha and Neel must confront the difference between who they are and who they want each other to be. Between canceled flights, long drives, and impromptu motel stays, नेहा & Neel asks what we lose with every generation in America, and if it’s ever too late to connect with your roots.
