About
Behna, is a play based in a Punjabi household set the day before a Indian family wedding. As the guests are busy eating, singing and dancing, tension is brewing in the kitchen.
Truths are told and secrets unfold between two generations of sisters.
Having been described by The Guardian as 'the most inventive piece of theatre I've seen this year, much is anticipated of this intriguing and site specific production. Fast-paced, funny and moving, Behna looks through the keyhole of a family home to reveal secrets and lies.
