Yes, but Qadir freely admits he that for the past year, he has watched every nightly episode of Tulsi, the tale of an Indian housewife and mother more properly known as The Mother-in-Law Was Once a Daughter-in-Law Too.

...play with such enthusiasm and passion. A great part of that was this new idea he had.” says co-producer Tara L. Moross ’09. Bolman’s “new idea” was to set Shakespeare’s classic tale of mistaken identity and pursuit of love on Memphis’ Beale Street, a jazz epicentre.
