Exits and Entrances: Cafe Alibaba and Other Plays

Cafe Alibaba:
The play explores the friendship, rivalry and angst of four young professionals brought together by the chance of everyday life and the convenient meeting place of a cafe near their bus stop. However, the gentle turbulence in their interaction spirals out of control with unexpected developments - a deep-seated resentment, a knife rashly wielded… Manto and the Dhoban:
We are transported to the Partition era: An unsophisticated village girl surprises Manto (the legendary Urdu writer) with her cool strength, spirit and derring-do.

Raghu Raghunath:
Friendship comes in many hues, with different expectations and varying shelf lives. For Raghu, his partner is his north, his south, his east and west .

Timshel (Thou Mayest!):
Life is a drama of complex relationships. But when the dreaded C word intrudes, and death is imminent, it can either get hopelessly even more complicated… or else, is suddenly simplified.

Life in the Time of Corona:
A trilogy of plays depicting life in these unprecedented, restricted times of the Covid-19 pandemic. Restless and despondent, three couples from different walks of life - a middle-class aging couple, young professionals and spunky millennials - find ways to navigate the obstacle course. Waiting… The play exposes the near-tragic situation of a middle-aged couple who have nothing to live for. They get on each other’s nerves in a way that smacks of the acerbic but is also comic. They plan to leave this world with a bang, not a whimper. But whoever said that life is so simple as to go according to plan?
