The Lawrence Batley Theatre is proud to support Neev, a theatre company from Calcutta, who will be presenting a satire based on contemporary Indian history and the Marathi play ‘Party’ written by Mahesh Elkunchwar. They will explore the hypocrisies within the intellectual and social elite through the context of a high society party and contrast this with the genocide inflicted by the state in a remote village of eastern India. Throughout the performance you will hear live India classical music on the Sarod, the singing styles of Thumri’s, Ghazals and also poetry.
