A production based on well-known Rajasthani writer Vijaydaan Detha’s story titled Dohri Zindagi (Two Lives), it deals with ideas of queerness and sexuality transcending the norms of gender and marriage. It is a love story between two women that survive an attempt of honour killing because they are defying social norms and go on to lead their lives on their own terms, as a couple.
The play is devised and performed by Mumbai-based actors Neha Singh and Bhumika Dube; directed by Gurleen Judge. The production received the prestigious gender bender grant from the Sandbox Collective, Goethe Institut Bengaluru and The Ladies Finger in 2016. They were also selected to perform at the International Theatre Festival of Kerala (ITFOK).
