Tabiyat is also a love triangle between the audience and the performers where they both woo the muse of theatre and capture her in space and time. Inspired by ancient health practices like Qigong, pranayama, and Ayurveda, “Tabiyat” represents the seven major organs—the brain, lungs, liver, bladder, kidneys, heart, and stomach—as characters in search of ‘tabiyat’, which has mysteriously vanished. Set against the backdrop of a health crisis in Mumbai, Tabiyat unfolds as an investigative musical, where a mysterious disease spreads across the city, causing women to lose their reflections and men to lose their erections—revealing a deep and urgent crisis at the heart of our health and well-being.
