Overview
Trapped in a house that keeps its secrets behind closed doors, a mother is confronted with the ghosts of her past when her son returns home after finding himself embroiled in a scandal.
The world premiere of a harrowing tragedy by Evening Standard Award nominated Anupama Chandrasekhar (Most Promising Playwright for Free Outgoing, Royal Court) transposes the themes of Ibsen’s Ghosts into modern-day India.
