Papa Painter
Book Now
Papa Painter is a son’s journey from the word ‘Papa’ to the person behind it.
A small family from a rural village boards a train bound for a hopefully better tomorrow. But migration changes the child faster than it changes the parent and gaps begin to form. Papa Painter is born from these gaps. Set in the 1990s India of ration cards and PCO booths, of Doordarshan and Shaktimaan, of cycle bells and Bajaj scooters, Papa Painter is an intimate exploration of the many stages in a father–son relationship.

Yogi Vs Bhogi
Yogi vs Bhogi is a free adaptation of the 7th-century play, Bhagavadajjukam (Sanskrit, ‘bhagavat’ - hermit; ‘ajjuka’ - harlot), also known in English as The Ascetic and The Courtesan. One of the oldest surviving plays in Sanskrit literature, it is a fine example of a `prahasana`, or farce. Layered in witty exchanges about dharma, it is centered around the transmigration of souls between the two titular characters leading to confusion and chaos for the supporting characters who have no answer to the absurdity of it all.
Through this retelling in English, Mahesh Dattani, plays around with the idea of gender: its expression, perception, spectrum and the exploration of what one truly is with a confrontation of stereotypes using humour and catharsis. Infused with Yakshagana, the play comes alive when the classic Sanskrit text and the physicality of theatre gels seamlessly with the traditional dance theatre form from coastal Karnataka.

Daag
When we consider our society as an integrated entity, we notice that, through social stratification a pyramid is built, sometimes clearly visible, sometimes concealed.
DAAG revolves around Bindiya, a tailor, who wants to get established and lead a lavish life. She earns her livelihood by stitching clothes for ladies. But she has lofty dreams of making it big in life. Reality strikes a different note. Her customers either short-change her or impose tough deadlines. Either way she is in a tight spot.
The play ends with questions about our ecosystem. Are those in its upper layer bound to exploit the ones in the lower? How strong is the impact of getting exploited?
