Ji Saab Ji, Ibsen coming to Delhi stage

The AGE, New Delhi, Friday, 26 November 2010

In Ji Saab li, Lushin Dubey plans to highlight the soul of humanity. She wants to take her audiences above the subject of terrorism and explore the enduring bonds of love and friendship, not between similar people, but between seemingly incompatible people.

Jl SAAB JI is a play talking about the insensitive era we live in. The play, directed by Lushin Dubey, describes a city immediately after a bomb blast. In the time, when we are living with fear and repercussions of terrorism and violence, Dubey is set to shed light on the set- patterns of systems and our reactions.

A policeman is convinced that a dying old man holds the key to finding the terrorist who has been identified as the mastermind of the blast. The police also summons a young boy who shares a special bond with the old man. But what actually is the young boy supposed to elicit from the old man, when the police itself has no clue what clues the old man holds?

Ultimately, Dubey is planning to highlight the soul of humanity. She wants to take her audiences above the subject of terrorism and explore the enduring bonds of love and friendship, not between similar people, but between seemingly incompatible people.

The music by the members of the Indian Ocean band and choreography of Ashley Lobo Danceworx will definitely set some new stage dynamics with the creative elements of Dubey.
