Autobiography

The Primetime Theatre Co. celebrates 35 years of theatre!

'Autobiography' is a brilliant play by the highly acclaimed Marathi playwright Mahesh Elkunchwar and directed by the well know and talented Lillete Dubey.

An ageing, much admired, charismatic writer Anantrao Rajadhyaksha dictates his autobiography to Pradnya , an irreverent, bright , sassy PhD researcher and in the process, talks about the controversial book on his love-life, which he had published earlier, where he spoke about his contemporaries, his troubled 30-year-old relationship with his wife Uttara , and his brief affair with Vasanti ( his sister in law ) and more.

All the characters share incidents and anecdotes in the present and from the past (many are flashback sequences), each giving their own version of the truth, so the audience is never quite sure where the truth really lies.

It’s a moving, dramatic, humorous and compelling piece of theatre.

Cast: Denzil Smith, Lillete Dubey, Suchitra Pillai & Sarah Hashmi

Age Limit: 15+
