In Pamela Mala Sinha’s play New, a new wife upends a new Canadian community
) has instead taken a familiar setup for crass comedy and used it to kick off a sensitive, snaking drama about three new Canadian couples sorting out complex relationships in a time of change.
Cue the entrance of his white girlfriend, Abby , who is eager to finally have a conversation about moving in together. She doesn’t speak Bengali so has no idea what Qasim is saying to those on the other end of the line. Sachin, a university professor also of Indian origin, lives in Qasim’s apartment building with his wife, Sita , a dancer who won’t dance the old dances or speak the new language in Winnipeg. Their marriage has been on the rocks since a personal tragedy, and Nuzha’s sudden arrival in their small circle has profound ripple effects on their relationship.
Sachin and Sita’s relationship is also compelling – a couple coming apart because one of them is embracing the new while the other is stuck in the past. Sinha’s powerful, wrenching monologues as Sita are showstoppers., Sinha has talked about wanting to paint a richer picture of immigrant life than what is often seen in plays and television shows written by second-gen writers, with parents who have thick accents and sexless existences and values stuck in the old country.
