Finally! Mill Mountain Theatre is, like, really back. Really.

The 2021 season kicks off this weekend with the "The Elephant in the Room," visit to cultures that clash, love and loss, issues of race, and the desperation of not belonging anywhere. 

It will be performed on the Trinkle Mainstage Friday and Saturday, June 11-12 at 7:30 p.m. Join Shetty on June 11 after the show for a special talkback about her creative process. 

"Elephant" is a one-woman play featuring playwright and performer Priyanka Shetty’s transition from her roots in India to finding a place in America. 

"The Elephant in the Room" has traveled across the country, making stops at the Kennedy Center, among others. It will be a part of the 2022 Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
