Namaste Man (Lost and Found in Kathmandu)

"Namaste" is a Hindi expression used as a conventional greeting on meeting or parting -- a word that means both hello and goodbye. 'Namaste Man,' the autobiographical play by actor Andrew Weems, draws on a childhood that was anything but conventional. Growing up in Africa and Asia, Weems spent his adolescence in houses furnished by the State Department, living a life of constant hellos and goodbyes. He experienced a world redolent with adventures, outsized personalities -- and mysteries that he would begin to unravel only as an adult.
