माँ की रसोई (Maa Ki Rasoi - My Mother’s Kitchen) started as a piece that Pratha Nagpal wanted to honour her mother - her beauty, her courage and her sacrifices. It then became a meta-theatrical piece that explores the struggles of a young first- generation immigrant Indian woman. It is a play about failing to write a play that could do justice to the women in her family. माँ की रसोई is a piece that gives voice to the immigrant experience of young people - the beauty we see in our mothers and the guilt we carry in our inability to be the version of ourselves that they would want us to be.
