Rasaka staged reading becomes a film!
Posted by DCA Theater on March 26, 2009 in January-June 2009 Season, INCUBATOR Series: Rasaka Theatre
by Anita Chandwaney: playwright, actor, director, Dir. Playwright Development
So one of Rasaka’s very first staged readings, Mausi, is now a film called Karma Calling, featuring 2 Rasaka founding members!
One thing really does lead to another doesn’t it?
It’ll be screening at the Gene Siskel Film Center as part of the Asian American Showcase.
Rasaka aided in the development of the Sarba and Sarthak Das screenplay back in 2004 at the DCA’s Storefront Theatre space.
(wonder if the DCA knows it’s now a Hollywood player?)
I had the honor and privilege of playing the title character - a 60 something year old grandmother.
Luckily (for the sake of my vanity but not my career), the director thought I was too young to play the role on film and cast her real life mom.
I wonder if any of the 10 scripts we will be presenting for INCUBATOR on Monday, March 30th will be developed into bigger projects…
