BRONTE goes to Bollywood at The Nuffield Theatre, Southampton from Tuesday!
One of the world’s favourite love stories is given vibrant new life in this irresistible musical interpretation of Brontë’s classic tale, set in the scorched desert landscape of Rajasthan.
Shakuntala is the beautiful and headstrong daughter of merchant Singh. Krishan is the wild street urchin that Singh adopts.
Thrown together as unlikely siblings, their adolescent play soon turns into tumultuous passion….but can their love withstand Indian society’s taboos and hierarchies?
Wuthering Heights is the latest production from leading British Asian company Tamasha – creator of A Fine Balance, Strictly Dandia and the groundbreaking East is East.
Influenced by Indian cinema past and present – from the brooding black-and-white epics of the 1950s, to colourful contemporary blockbusters – this is a new interpretation of Brontë’s classic tale of passion, jealousy and revenge.
