Prayas Theatre presents Tiffin Box

Tiffin Box will feature a mixed platter of theatre, poetry, stand-up comedy, monologues and music, alongside classical dance forms such as Kathak and Bharatanatyam from artists rooted in South Asian origin and connections. Prayas promises something for everyone. Popular in India, a tiffin box, is a multi-tiered lunch container to carry home-cooked meals, representing a blend of flavours.  It’s a symbol of comfort and diversity. As a metaphor, it's an apt title for a show filled with sweet and spicy moments, every bite offering a different taste. 

The 70-minute production reflects the vibrant South Asian cultural heritage in Aotearoa New Zealand, merging various art forms into a dynamic and cohesive performance. Reflecting the richness of our South Asian cultural heritage, Prayas Theatre, in its nineteenth year, celebrates its diversity by blending these unique art forms into a single performance, each lasting for five to eight minutes.  

WHEN: October 8 – 12 
WHERE: Basement Theatre (Studio)
