Sherlock Holmes And The Case of Vanishing Author
Peter John Cooper's celebrated play comes to India, completely reimagined for Bombay's post-independence landscape.
One year ago, Sherlock Holmes received an anonymous note: a writer will be murdered. Now in Bombay, Holmes and Dr. Watson race to solve their strangest case yet. The writer they've come to save seems to have vanished, but not in the way they expected.
In this mind-bending thriller, the world's greatest detective faces an enemy he's never encountered before. A meta-theatrical experience about the blurred lines between author and character, reality and imagination.
Some mysteries can't be solved. Some can only be lived.

NUTS
This is the story of Claudia Faith Draper, an upper middle class Caucasian woman who was expected to lead a ‘dignified’ life.
She was not supposed to become a call girl, let alone become ‘that’ call girl who killed one of her clients and is now accused of first degree manslaughter.
The forces at large which ironically also includes her own mother and step-father have used their powers to ensure she is declared criminally insane and spends the rest of her life at Bellevue Medical Hospital- an institute for the criminally insane.
As is her right, she challenges this verdict and thus begins the play, “NUTS.”

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.

PAARA
Set Inside a burning hot sauna bath. What starts as casual conversation soon turns into a deadly game of wit, ego, and power. As the heat rises, masks fall. Every word becomes a challenge, every pause a threat.
Funny, absurd, and sharply unsettling, PAARA transforms an ordinary sauna into a pressure cooker of human behaviour, where pride melts faster than patience. The play exposes how fragile, and ridiculous, the human ego truly is.
A dark comedy where the room gets hotter… and so do the minds inside it.
