Life amazes us everyday, so do people! Four strangers in a cab, what do they talk about? Same as four captives in a confined cell? And what about a husband and a wife fighting over tooth pain or a few friends fighting illness of another friend? Endless possibilities.

And there are multiple ways to explore these, but the easiest one is drama!

Kommune presents 'Tamasha', an online dramatic readings show with a group of talented actors, performing live readings on some really interesting topics and with all the feels!

In a month-long process, performers were selected and trained by the likes of Sheena Khalid and Roshan Abbas.

So grab your cup of chai or coffee and join us on Sunday, 5th September at 7 PM for an entertaining, soulful evening.

List of readings:

Number 22:

Four captives in a confined cell..arguing, frightened, annoyed. But are they really who we think they are? 

Performers: Monica Dani, Vedika Vyas, Zarin Shihab, Nikhil Alves, Anuj Gurwara

Ever fought over a seat? Ever fallen in love? Relive that, come sit with us on ‘Meri Seat’. A story of two people who fought and then fell in love - over a seat.

Performers: Ankur Thakur, Shilpa Varma, Sreeja Mukherjee, Rohan trivedi

Rideshare: 

One cab, four different lives. But one of them has a secret, a special ability. Will the others find out? 

Performers: Vaishnavi Nandkumar, Amaara Sangam, Lisha bajaj, Manjiri pupala

Beemar:

Past whole year of this pandemic has been about unsolicited advice and hundreds of home remedies. Through this comic script, Saadat Hasan Manto predicted this more than 70 years ago! In this story, poor Kumar wants to get better but rather becomes a guinea pig for his friends.

Breakups are hard. And you know, what’s harder? Getting over them! Walk with these relatable characters, on this journey of healing.

Akal Dadh:

Another classic piece from a legendary storyteller Saadat Hasan Manto! In which he smartly says, tooth pain is one thing and marriage is another! This story is clearly more than a fun conversation between a husband and a wife!

Smell of Rain:

A rainy day, a warm cafe, a tense man, a cheery girl, what could possibly go right?
