LUNGS
An NCPA Production in association with QTP.
The ice caps are melting, there’s overpopulation, political unrest; everything’s going to hell in a handcart – why on earth would someone bring a baby into this world?
They are an everyday couple in a fairly stable relationship. Out of the blue, he pops the question about having a baby. What follows is an emotional rollercoaster ride that is Lungs, an intensely intimate, intricate, and funny play about what it means to be a couple confronted by a world of uncertainty. They grapple with making responsible choices in the face of rising social inequity, environmental disaster, and political unrest.
The play first opened in June 2022, at JBT Box, NCPA, Mumbai
