Meneka

Film & Theatre director, actor & storyteller

We cannot change the circumstances that we are born into. But we can choose to follow our dreams. My mission is to inspire -  especially those less fortunate than myself by reflecting a never giving up spirit in my own life and the stories I choose to tell.

Apologia

My theatre directing debut. Written by award-winning playwright and dear friend

Alexi Kaye Campbell

REVIEW by Eleanor Lewis for the MarkAspen Blog Apologia isn’t just an interesting piece of social commentary though, it’s funny and engaging too .…very well directed by Meneka Das – there isn’t a wasted line in it…It doesn’t feel like the two hours it occupies..
