Story.  I’m sure you’ll agree that life has become a rollercoaster. The last few years have brought grief, change in various forms, and well, Stamp duty holiday!  Faced with uncertainty, Hope, became our guiding light. Without delving into the Metaphilosophy, our 4 original short stories aim to make you think, laugh, cry and above all renew your relationship with hope.

​

Synopsis.

• Stamp Duty Holiday: Neel and Anya have been looking for a house to buy for a long time. They can never get on the same page, even after many house viewings. For their latest viewing arranged by Anya, Anya arrives on time to be greeted by Presh (estate agent) but Neel arrives drunk after a Saturday morning game of golf. What transpires next may define not just their decision to buy a house together...

​

• Kintsugi: India. Covid -19 second wave. Chaos, panic and distress everywhere. In a country with unlimited challenges and limited resources, Sana & Aseem fight for their family's survival.

​

• Losing Your Religion: Ever wondered what it would take to register a new religion? Would it be as simple as getting followers on social media or would you have to go through a registration process? What would a new religion look like? Does the world really need a new one? So many questions - mostly rhetorical.

​

• Meta: The writers are struggling to find the 4th story and one of them is convincing the others that the story will write itself on the stage.
