Ghasiram Kotwal January 24 – February 9, 2025 | Palo Alto

playwright: Vijay Tendulkar director: Harish Agastya producer: Anitha Dixit music director: Nachiketa Yakkundi dance director: Soumya Agastya (in Hindi, with supertitles in English)

Our 112^th production is our most ambitious production yet! GHASIRAM KOTWAL is Vijay Tendulkar’s magnum opus – a grand musical about power, politics and perversion in the times of the Peshwas. Arriving in Pune from northern India, Ghasiram rises to great prominence through deceit, trickery and violence. But as an immigrant, can he disrupt the status quo?
Set against the backdrop of the Maratha Empire of the 18th century, the play features spectacular sets and costumes, iconic musical tracks, and the beautiful and vibrant folk dances of Maharashtra.
