Detailsof the play ‘TAXI’:
 
About the Play:
Indira (an almost famous playback singer in Bollywood) attempts anescape from her dismal past. Little does she know that the taxi she is in, isas unreal as her quest. It is morosely trapped in the same time and space,ferrying everyone to nowhere. On another plane, the play issubliminally-wheeled on an ethereal journey, where the existential explorationsand inevitable realizations of its characters unravel the disturbing truthsbehind their pointless search for contentment. This 60-minute long play, set inMumbai, takes you on an emotional roller-coaster ride. A tribute to Beckettiandrama, the play raises some basic yet pertinent questions on the reason of ourexistence; depicting the lives of three people – Indira, the singer; Shankar,the taxi driver; &Jeet, Indira’s estranged boyfriend.

Detailsof the musical travelogue ‘Sounds of Earth’:
 
About thePerformance:
Sounds ofEarth is a 60-minute long musical travelogue performed by a group of musicians,that brings to you fresh musical compositions and adaptations from theinteriors of India – the sounds of the purest nature. It is a story of adrifter – a young woman. She wanders, with purpose at first and then aimlessly,in search of new sounds. For she believes music is the rhythm of her soul. Thedrilling sound of a jackhammer; the falling of rain on a tin-roof; the howl ofthe wind- it's all rhythmic. Lyrics and beats remove her from reality,transporting her to a place of her past, or of her future. And it is music thatconnects her with some very important people in her life and establisheseverlasting relationships.
