Description
Niru is a young Bengali woman married to an English colonial bureaucrat – Tom.Tom loves Niru, exoticising her as a frivolous plaything to be admired and kept; but Niru has a long-kept secret, and just as she thinks she is almost free of it, it threatens to bring her life crashing down around her.Tanika Gupta re-imagines Ibsen''s classic play of gender politics through the lens of British colonialism, offering a bold, female perspective exploring themes of ownership and race.This edition is published for the first time in Methuen Drama''s Plays For Young People series, aimed specifically at students aged 16-18 to perform and study.
