Marsh Youth Theater presents Siddhartha, The Bright Path, the story of Prince Siddharthas journey to become the Buddha. The tale is told in parallel with that of Chandra, a modern-day San Francisco girl who finds herself posing similar questions about the importance of that next pair of $200 sneakers as opposed to the human suffering she sees all around her. The two meet under the Bodhi tree, on the banks of the Ganges River, where Buddha helps Chandra find her own brand of enlightenment. Flavored with Indian music, art, kathak dance and even a show-stopping hip hop Bollywood scene, the talented cast of twenty young performers ranges in age from 10 to 16 (there are no adult actors). This holiday celebration is designed to bring the warmth of the season to Bay Area children and families of all traditions.
