“The Submarine Mare” is the story of a young British girl in 19th century India and her encounter with Indian stories and culture. Framed by the Sepoy Mutiny of 1857 and the Cawnpore massacre, the play is an original work, loosely grounded in historical accounts. It incorporates Indian dance and music alongside adaptations of Hindu myths in a story about cultural collision and conflict, and also the possibility of reaching beyond it.
