Synopsis

What satisfaction can a blind man take from visiting an exotic dancer? Anoshi Irani’s multiple Dora Mavor Moore Award-winning and Governor General’s Award-nominated play explores the harsh world of exotic dancing in Mumbai. A knock at the door of Apartment 4-A brings the complex and brutal past that intertwines three characters to light. At turns hilarious and mysterious, Peter Hinton helms this contemporary Canadian classic with a seriously gritty twist. (factorytheatre.ca)
