SEX, GOOD SEX, BAD SEX, MORE SEX, NO SEX. AND WHAT’S NEXT?
A story that dares to explore what other options people have; a story that entertains the notion of people being anything they want, including daring to be themselves, and not just in relation to others either. At the center of it is a hush-hush topic: Sex.
Patralekhika Productions proudly debuts its first theatrical production The Kamasutra Chronicles by new playwright/director Shriya Bhagwat.
Challenging traditional ideas that arise from societal conventions of the South Asian community – and the desire to assimilate to the model minority myth – the play boldly questions the choices women make for themselves and their relationships.
The play tackles the taboo topic of sex in the South Asian community. This contemporary New Zealand drama offers a glimpse into the inner workings of a Kiwi-Indian couple whose marriage is falling apart.
Can the Kamasutra help? Will its creator, the wise sage Vatsayan and his muse Vasant Sena offer the lovers any useful advice? Or will things spiral out of control?
