BEWARE OF THE EVIL EYE!

This unique and dynamic autobiographical, coming-of-rage one-man show by Chetan Rao and Nalini Sharma is a life-affirming, irresistibly funny, and profoundly moving story chronicling the journey of self-discovery of an Indian American queer drag performer living in New York City, struggling to reconcile his cultural roots, his identity, and his pursuit of love and success. Through bold storytelling and transformative drag performances, Chetan confronts his past, peels back generational expectations, and embraces his true self.

The show pays homage to the classic boy-meets-girl Bollywood tradition by reenacting popular scenes as drag acts, as Chetan undergoes both a figurative and literal transformation—shaking off the “curse” to finally meet his true self: the “boy” meeting the “girl.”

The creative team includes Chetan Rao (Actor/Drag Artist/Writer), Nalini Sharma (Playwright), David James Parr (Director), Tommaso Cartia (Producer for Boundless Theater), Bandera Jones (Costume Designer), Maria Weyer (Production Assistant/Stage Manager)

The theme song "Shadows" is written & performed by Chetan Rao and produced by Chris Chianesi
