Twenty-two-year old Vidula is about to embark on the mother of all journeys – an arranged marriage to a "suitable boy" from the US she has never met. Her brother Rohit, an up-and-coming professional with a Catholic girlfriend is busy fending off marriage brokers and "one of a kind" proposals while her sister Hema has arrived with baggage of more than one kind from Australia, where she lives with her high-flying bank executive husband and two children. Thrown into the mix are a teenage boy with raging hormones who nurses an unabashed obsession for Hema, the household cook who is harboring some disturbing secrets of her own and a colorful supporting cast of characters, each with exasperatingly funny and unique eccentricities. In this hilarious and moving spectacle, renowned playwright Girish Karnad serves up some deeply penetrating insights about the Indian psyche and reveals how certain notions of wealth, class, sexual propriety, tradition and modernity form the essential fabric of middle class society in contemporary India. The play is set in Dharwad.

Mostly. Theatre is art. Theatre is entertainment. Theatre can also have purpose. The theatre we choose to do is gripping and beautiful. Sometimes it is zany because we also like to have a good frolic. But it is always intelligent and thought provoking. It will leave you with something to take back after the curtain call. We stage pieces that are either original works by South Asian playwrights, or adapted to a South Asian context. Most of our plays are in English. So, even if you are not from the subcontinent, you can enjoy great theatre and learn about our culture. Our latest production is always on our Upcoming page.
