She Could Have Been Great: Recent Episodes
Smitha Nagar
She Could Have Been Great is a play that follows Saniya, a South Asian American woman, on a journey of introspection as she questions why she isn’t happy despite doing everything "right". Through funny, depressing, terrifying, and touching moments, she reflects on memories from her past to gain a better understanding of herself.
