Translated in house from Manoj Mitra's Rajdarshan, this play is a political satire that borders on the divine, the absurd and the divinely absurd. The play is a commentary on greed and power with ample bits of comedy and heart wrenching moments. The last king of the Nanda dynasty is on his deathbed. As his tyrannous rule is seemingly coming to a close, the powers within the royal palace conspire to take the throne, while a revolution seems to be in the offing in other parts of the kingdom. The king on his deathbed has called for a ceremony wherein he would proffer grants, wealths and riches to Brahmins in exchange for their prayers. As this news goes around, Lambodar Bhatta drags along his rather unwilling blacksmith godson on a journey to the capital. As they reach their destiniation, certain incidents unfold that would change the course of history.

Bhoomi tries to look at physical aggression against women at multiple times in the history and some of the patriarchal based answers to it. Set in two different times, the play opens with a period of disorientation experienced by a theatre director who runs an amateur theatre company. This period of uncertainty can be seen as her own questioning of the nature of theatre she does, primarily on stories that are inherent with patriarchal ideologies, particularly in the areas of physical aggression. The play traces the journey of the theatre director who begins to question her own value system and that of the society through her characters. A group of theatre actors arrive for a dress rehearsal of a play that explores the myth of Dandakaranya Forest. In the myth, Araja is the daughter of Sage Shukracharya ,who lives in the forest and controls the life of his daughter and two female students. Meanwhile , King Dhandaka , who has built his kingdom in the same forest ,believes that everything in the forest belongs to him, including the women. At the dress rehearsal, a series of incidents ensue due to her disorientation, which makes the director question the representation of women in her own adaptation of the mythical story. Upon realising that her play is simply repeating the same male dominated power structures, she attempts to subvert the story by deconstructing and reconstructing the scenes in the play. Can she find an unbinding space around her for subjugated characters to raise their voices ? Will she find the courage to rewrite her own value system, find a resolution and receive support from society in the journey ? This play contains content that can be upsetting or triggering. Viewer’s discretion is advised.

I Dream Before I Take the Stand : The playwright Arlene Hutton has said that her play is about every woman's fear of being raped and being blamed for it. The character of "She" is imagining what will take place the next day in the courtroom when she is interrogated by the defense attorney. So it is a dream play, or rather a nightmare. In an actual courtroom the lawyer would not be able to ask some of the questions he does. Hutton gets around this by making it surreal. The lawyer verbally rapes the woman and play ends as it begins, the cycle starting over, the feeling of being raped never ending. The play is dedicated to "every woman who ever walked in a park." In this present time of adversity, which is full of perversions in the form of violence, the play 'I Dream Before I Take the Stand', has become a major driving force for the unveiling of women's disgruntlements in the world. That is a Railway Station, a roofless Nomadic family is sleeping with their little baby, who is dreaming with the innocence of how safe the world is. The abusers who had taken the child away in a few moments were horribly raped and beheaded with her. The humanity was shocked by this incident, What was the wrong with that child? In this case What would be say to the perverted minds that they howling ,woman is raped by her dress code? The audience who come to see the play is a reflection of their own world, their own faces. When society's cruelty is dramatized and unveiled on the stage, the play is taken up with the discussion of how this rigid time and space can respond to it. The patriarchal society is thinking and treating a woman as a 'material. The play insists to overcome the boundaries of this 'Patriarchal Ego' and creating a sensation among the people

Kaamrupigal is an excerpt from The Ramayana, spanning the events starting with the defacing of Shurpanakhi till the death of Jatayu. This bit of Ramayana offers an entertaining look at the dramatic events of Panchavati Prasanga. We attempt to present it in a slightly modernized and endearing fashion. With this play, we explore the boundaries of desire and the tumults of lust.
