If you thought ancient kingdoms were all about inexhaustible treasures, bewildering secret chambers, momentous battles and legendary kings, think again.

If you thought, legendary kings were all about honor, unbendable morals and loyalties, leading from the front, think once again.

Alternatively, you could just come and watch ‘Ek Shahi Raat’ – a 70-minute Hindi Play by the Turiya Theater Group.

Come witness the unfurling of an astonishing chronicle of a slipshod king blinded by his repulsive fantasies, an artist obligated to heave out a story buried under the sands of time, and a jester (king’s own fool) asked to do what he does best: act as a joker. When the night dawns on the kingdom and they are all inebriated, they are the best of friends.

If you thought, a king’s friends were a privileged lot as compared to his enemies or other court members, definitely think again.

The play is written by Miro Gavran, Indian adaptation and Direction by Bavani Ganti.
