The Saint comes to Napa

Ralph Maraj's play The Saint which played to large au­di­ences in San Fer­nan­do, Cen­tral and along the east-west cor­ri­dor, will be staged in Port-of-Spain for the first time at Na­pa for a sin­gle per­for­mance on Ju­ly 20.

In the play, See­ta is a beau­ti­ful young woman fac­ing great chal­lenges. The tur­bu­lence starts when her boyfriend Vish­nu de­cides to give up world­ly pur­suits for the spir­i­tu­al life. He ends their re­la­tion­ship to en­ter an ashram in In­dia.

Af­ter her re­cov­ery, See­ta gets close to Cor­nelius but this brings fur­ther com­pli­ca­tions. She be­comes in­creas­ing­ly dis­il­lu­sioned with the hu­man con­di­tion and must make a crit­i­cal de­ci­sion about her life. What be­comes of her is a source of great in­ter­est in the play.

See­ta is played by Melis­sa Sookdeo. Sookdeo made her act­ing de­but when she played the part at the Na­pari­ma Bowl in April. The per­for­mance al­so re­quires her skill as a dancer.

�2 The play be­gins at 5.30 pm and tick­ets can be ob­tained by call­ing 657-1086.
