The theater production stars Anupam Kher and Neena Gupta and has garnered rave reviews around the world.

For those of you unfamiliar with Bollywood actors, names like Anupam Kher and Neena Gupta may not ring a bell. However, both are very talented and hallowed stars in India, admired for their great work in film, theater, and television. The two have teamed up together with writer director Rakesh Bedi to deliver a unique and unforgettable theater going experience.

The story follows two ex-lovers, played by Kher and Gupta, who decide to meet again after 35 years to discuss what went wrong all those years ago. They were once high school sweethearts, but eventually married other people. On the journey to discover what went wrong, they share memories that traverse a wide range of emotions, unveiling layer after layer of these characters. In his own words, Anupam said “The play is about love, about longing, about betrayal, about feeling hurt, about redemption”. American critics have raved about this play, the performances and challenging roles of Anupam and Neena, and the use of a new concept of flashbacks, where the two interact with a screened flashback version of themselves. If all of this still has you asking why should you watch it, Neena summed it up perfectly when she said “Watch it because you will see you so many times in it”. 

Here are their remaining performances in the U.S:

August 21st in Washington D.C

August 28th in Detroit, Michigan

September 2nd in Renton, Washington

September 4th in Stafford, Texas,

September 8th in San Diego, California
