The Waste Land – Drama

Add to Calendar 2026-07-30 07:30 PM 2026-08-02 07:30 PM Asia/Kolkata The Waste Land Inspired by T. S. Eliot’s groundbreaking poem The Waste Land, this powerful German production brings the text to life through a striking blend of performance, sound, and visual imagery. Written in the aftermath of the First World War, The Waste Land reflects a world that feels unsettled and empty. The poem moves through a series of voices and images that capture this sense of uncertainty, revealing both the disorientation of the time and its emotional undercurrents. At the centre of the performance is a solitary actor who moves through these shifting voices, accompanied by a live, evolving soundscape. Using simple materials like steel and plaster, the stage becomes an active space. Sounds are created live: scraping, striking, resonating, turning the stage into both instrument and environment. As layers are broken open, new images and associations surface, inviting the audience to piece together their own experience of the work. This production offers a distinct interpretation of the poem; through layers, changing perspectives, and moments that allow for personal interpretation. Bangalore vtmani@dnm.in false MM/DD/YYYY

Bechara Maara Gaya – Comedy, Satire

12th July 2026 3.30 PM & 7.30 PM
View Details
Add to Calendar 2026-07-12 03:30 PM 2026-07-12 07:30 PM Asia/Kolkata Bechara Maara Gaya Bechara Mara Gaya is inspired by Accidental Death of an Anarchist by Dario Fo and reimagined in present-day India. The play is a sharp satire on the abuse of power and the systems that protect it. The story centres on the investigation into the custodial death of a man accused in a train-bombing case. As the inquiry unfolds, an unexpected outsider enters the system, unsettling the official version of events. What follows is a spiral of confusion, performance and mistaken identities that pushes those in power dangerously close to exposing their own actions. Bangalore vtmani@dnm.in false MM/DD/YYYY

Behind Closed Doors – Drama

View Details
Add to Calendar 2026-07-17 07:30 PM 2026-07-17 07:30 PM Asia/Kolkata Behind Closed Doors Behind Closed Doors is a powerful original play that sheds light on the often-unseen reality of domestic violence. Through the lives of ordinary people trapped in cycles of fear, silence, and control, the story explores the emotional, psychological, and physical impact of abuse on individuals and families. By confronting the truths that are hidden behind closed doors, the play challenges stigma, encourages conversation, and gives voice to experiences that are too often ignored. Raw, intimate, and thought-provoking, Behind Closed Doors is a reminder that some of the deepest wounds are the ones the world never sees. Bangalore vtmani@dnm.in false MM/DD/YYYY

When Mohan, a logic-loving school teacher, arrives to “fix” the town, he quickly realizes this place runs on emotions, not equations. Every attempt to bring sense only creates more madness, misunderstandings multiply, love complicates everything, and the town refuses to change. As Mohan gets pulled deeper into this delightfully irrational world, one question remains—is it smarter to change the system…or surrender to it? A fast-paced comedy packed with quirky characters, unexpected twists, and laugh-out-loud moments, this is a riot where heart vs mind becomes the ultimate showdown!
