Actress Lushin Dubey will be in Mumbai to perform UNTITLED, directed by Arvind Gaur.

The play is scheduled for Saturday, 13th March 2010 at 7pm and Sunday, 14th March 2010 at 6.30 pm at the NCPA Experimental Theatre at Nariman Point.

Design & Direction: Arvind Gaur

UNTITLED (Hindi/English) is based on Vijay Dan Detha's story 'Nyari Nyari Maryada' and Dario Fo's short play 'Medea'.

Music by Dr. Sangeeta Gaur

Director's Note:

Untitled SOLO is basically a "fusion" experimental venture. This fusion is incorporated in each element of the design from language of performance, set and music to acting with puppets and it is my attempt to discover a new language for solo performance. As a director, the challenge to maintain the socio -political relevance of the theme while exploring new presentation style has been an ever stimulating process for me. The script is a pendulous swing between the two stories and touches upon pertinent aspects, giving voice to the woman's case! Should a woman hit back? And why not? What does it appear? Is it justified?

The production is a combination of English and Hindi, and Lushin' s co-actors are puppets.
