Kanika Rajan
New York City
About the Job
Woman; 24 to 28 years old; South Asian. Mezzo/Belter. Tamil-American woman. A brilliant second-year law student in New York (and originally from the Bay Area), Kanika has built her life around discipline, achievement, and survival. Beneath her sharp intellect and composed exterior is a former dancer and dreamer who has quietly buried parts of herself under ambition and responsibility. As her marriage strains and an ancient Tamil story begins to awaken something in her, Kanika is forced to confront identity, desire, heritage, and the life she may have abandoned. Must sing.
