Meet a Mom: Broadway Actress and Artist Shoba Narayan
Shoba Narayan has appeared on Broadway as Jasmine in Aladdin, and has held roles in Hamilton and Wicked. An accomplished actress and artist, her debut album, Soft Hours, blends Broadway classics, Indian lullabies and more into a calming record both parents and kids will enjoy equally.
This new project is inspired by becoming a mom to almost two-year-old Leela. “Becoming a mother has added a new dimension to my creative life. It has deepened my appreciation for storytelling, connection, and the small moments that often inspire great art. Many of the projects I’m most excited about today—including my recent album, Soft Hours—grew directly out of that experience,” says Shoba.
For this week’s Meet a Mom, we asked this accomplished South Indian artist about how her immigrant parents inspired her, details of her new album and more.
