About the event

Two murders in one night, two plays in one night, too bad for one night.

tch tch tch

But isn’t that what all of us are secretly looking for?

We bring you Oedipus and Bharta, two plays at the cost of one, to make you cry and laugh in the same night.

Written by Pali Bhupinder Singh, Oedipus is a story of a young boy who kidnaps a woman amidst serious riots. The boy had been plotting the murder of the woman since a year and had collected numerous weapons, carefully choreographed how he will perform the act. All this innocent boy wanted, and fantasised, was to see this woman scared and begging for her life but to his surprise, the woman is not at all scared. In fact, she seems very relaxed. Does this woman know the boy? Or doesn’t she? Or is she playing tricks to free herself? The boy is about to discover that all his life had been a constructed lie, broken by this woman.

Bharta, on the other hand, is a tale of an everyday household, with salt to taste. An adaptation of Bhisham Sahni’s Saag Meat, Bharta takes us through the story of Sonam, an ordinary woman with not-so-ordinary secrets. She believes she is a good woman in a cruel world, and has to fight her way through things to survive. What will happen when someone tries to destroy her peace, and her idea of home? What will happen when someone tries to take from her, what is and has been hers rightfully? Let’s find out, how she puts things, and people, in their place.
