Nautanki Bazaar

We were back after the summer with a great reading of "A Doll's House" by Henrik Ibsen, superbly adapted by Tanika Gupta. Thank you to all who came and we'll see you next month! 😀

And we're back!!!!! Nautanki Bazaar's "Play Reading Club" returns on Fri, Oct 10 where we'll be reading "A Doll's House" by Henrik Ibsen in a new adaptation by Tanika Gupta - Niru is a young Bengali woman married to an English colonial bureaucrat, Tom. Tom loves Niru, exoticising her as a frivolous plaything to be admired and kept. But Niru has a long-kept secret. And just as she thinks she is almost free of it, it threatens to bring her life crashing down around her.

Tanika Gupta reimagines Ibsen’s classic play of gender politics through the lens of British colonialism, offering a bold, female perspective exploring themes of ownership and race.

Tanika Gupta MBE FRSL (born 1 December 1963) is a British playwright. Apart from her work for the theatre, she has also written scripts for television, film and radio plays. Over the past 25 years Tanika has written over 25 stage plays that have been produced in major theatres across the UK.
