This new play is a lighter take on the differences between men and women This new play is a lighter take on the differences between men and women Ask director Heeba Shah why she opted for a new actor to debut such a prestigious play and says, “A solo play is tougher to pull off than an ensemble as that one actor must be able to hold the audience for the entire length of time. We went through the rigours of an audition process and chose Vishesh from over 30 people.” However, the final sign-off on the actor was done by executive producer Oskar Erickson, who “has long envisioned bringing this production to the Indian market” and is “thrilled to finally present this show in India for the very first time.” The theatrical piece takes a light-hearted look at the misunderstandings between men and women through the eyes of a caveman. We’ve tweaked some of the Western references and language for the Indian audience, the content of the play works across cultures and the majority of the script is the original.” Catch it LIVE!
