Unlocked

The lockdown has affected us in different ways – introspective, illuminating, irritating, igniting, isolating.

Needless to say we’ll never be the same again.

Seven playwrights, write of their experiences, their perspectives of the 150 days of solitude, if not physically, certainly in the mind.

The eight monologues in Hindi and English vary from the hilarious to the heart warming, from eureka moments to experiential thoughts. From conversations to unseen companions to stream of consciousness bursts of solo thought.

After the phenomenal success of One on One Parts One and Two this lockdown sequel is a unique show, bringing together India’s finest actors, written by some of our most talented playwrights and directed by seven of our best known directors.

The play will be broadcast via Zoom.

Show Runtime is 75 mins followed by a live talkback with cast & crew for upto 45 mins.

 

Letters to a Daughter from Prison

‘Little one, may you grow up into a brave soldier in India’s service!’

Nehru the statesman is continually separated from his shy, intellectual daughter Indira Priyadarshini by the turmoil of building a country. They forge the bonds of a loving, nurturing and formative relationship through their detailed, prolific letters to each other. “I felt compelled to write this story because I could not find a parallel in the Western world of a statesman father who nurtured his daughter in such a way.” Lavonne Mueller.
