Director Biography - Maya Jain

Hello, My name is Maya Jain and I am an artist. It is my passion and I believe, my purpose. To share voices that haven't been heard, to tell stories that haven't been told, to represent the unrepresented, and to create from within.

Director Statement

As I dancer myself I know the sacrifice that comes with the art. “Always, something hurts. Somewhere on your body, there’s pain, an ache that comes from punching beyond what any person was ever meant to do.” But that's the sacrifice you make. A lifetime of pain just for a chance to fly.
