About the Show

I walk home. The skyline is changed. The skeleton is fast becoming a huge metal creature. They have built a behemoth here.

Bhopal. India. 1984.

Born under a blue sky in a city of lakes, a girl grows up with her father and sister. The three of them together, always.

But as she grows, the land begins to change. A giant factory rises over her town. Her mother always wanted more for them – now the girl wants more too.

Then comes the night that tears everything apart.

Ferocious, brutal and damning, this epic story of a life ravaged by ecological disaster is written by Titas Halder (Foal, Finborough) and directed by Matthew Xia (Tambo & Bones, ATC/Stratford East).
