curator

  • Quasar Thakore Padamsee & Sankar Venkateswaran

A kaleidoscopic exploration of queer love through an enthralling evening of theatre, music, poetry and movement. The piece draws from powerful writings from history and literature. It weaves a rich tapestry of the dynamic and evolving conversations the community is currently engaging with, in the form of songs, satire, musical storytelling, and more.

The play comprises writings of eminent queer writers, exploring the canvas of queerness across locations and diverse people in India. You can look forward to a delightful, vibrant, quick-paced evening, funny and moving, personal and political.
