The story of Jairaj and Ratna, two Bharat Natyam dancers past their prime, is contrasted with that of their daughter Lata, who is on the brink of establishing herself as a brilliant dancer. Her immenent success creates tension and jealousy, and the audience is drawn into the dark secrets of family relationships and conflicts between generations. The play probes the surface of the characters to question their deeper motivations, but the mode is comic rather than tragic, even though the concerns are serious, and you are never sure whether to laugh or cry.
About the Group:
The Company was set up in 1991 with the ultimate objective of providing a platform for original Indian writing in English. All its recent productions have been in keeping with this philosophy. Some of the more notable productions of the group include 'Dance Like A Man' (1995) ,'Autobiography' (1996), 'Jaya- The Victory!' (an operatic montage of the Mahabharata-1998), ‘On a Muggy Night in Mumbai' (1999), 'Siren City' (2000) ‘ 30 Days in September' (2001), SAMMY (2005 ). Three of these have won the Sahitya Kala Parishad Award for the Best Play of the Year, and SAMMY won 4 National awards at META in 2006. The Company has participated in several National and International Festivals, and toured extensively in India and abroad with most of their productions.
