Sara Kumar has a B.S. in Electrical Engineering from Rice University and an M.A. in Faith and Culture from the University of St. Thomas. Sara is currently serving as a Teaching Artist with The Rhapsody Theatre in Frisco, Texas. She has written, directed, acted in and composed music for many different dramatic events over the years, but now she is a poet and playwright, with a STEM background.
Sara especially loves responding with contemporary pieces to Shakespeare and writing about ancient and new intersections of culture, faith, science, and reason. She needs to, sometimes, think about editing a play piece about Andrew Johnson’s family life and political life during the Reconstruction Era at the end of the Civil War.
Sara dreams about editing her play, entitled,
"And Galileo Saw A Pendulum, While Sitting In A Church,"
during the Fall of 2026, green leaves and orange-brown, with coffee and cinnamon,
which will be released online, the dramatic play that is,
for public study, at no cost,
in installments, over the next two years.
The visual presentation and text document for Act 1, Scene 4,
will go online on Labour Day, 2026.
I wish to help make reading and research welcoming to people of all ages, so that subjects such as history and engineering, need not feel frightening, and so that we may come to explore what we truly love.
Thanks be to God, and let there be peace.
The artist, Sara Kumar, associated with Broadway World, ArtSeed in San Francisco, California, The Rhapsody Theatre in Frisco, Texas, and work in South Asian American theatre, in Houston, Texas, is the same person. This artist's work spans theatre, arts education, science and engineering with arts education, writing, and community arts initiatives.
Broadway World Page for Sara Kumar,
and I'll respond, when I can, in writing, with love and care,
so thankful, and so thankful for living time in LA area and Manhattan, and H-town too,
beautiful love.
Let there be peace and freedom, with divine love.
Love and Love
The artist, Sara Kumar, is pictured above, in both photographs,
wearing a camiseta, with artistic rendering of Servant of God, Dorothy Day,
who helped found the Catholic Worker Movement.
The text on the camiseta is, "Catholic Worker."
Dorothy Day's racially integrated Houses of Hospitality,
helped establish communities,
where food could be distributed to people, regardless of race.
Dorothy Day's publication, "The Catholic Worker,"
helped give voice to the struggles of Black American workers.
Sara Kumar loves to research about the life of Frederick Douglass,
and think about Frederick's life and writing.
She also loves to think about virtue and democracy.
The three autobiographical books of Frederick Douglass are:
"Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, An American Slave"
"My Bondage and My Freedom"
"Life and Times of Frederick Douglass Written by Himself"
Frederick Douglass met with President Abraham Lincoln,
at the White House, on three occasions.
This is my response, to the Houston Press Review of my play, "Magdalene."
This is my response, to the Broadway World Review of my play,
"The Rainbow Room."
These above four photographs were taken,
at Theatre Unlimited in North Hollywood,
California,
with artists, working on,
Sara Kumar's play, "The Rainbow Room,"
and all the proceeds from the production,
went to benefit NARSAD Artworks,
in California.
It was so amazing to be,
with these so very talented artists,
in the Hollywood area.
