Lady Anandi is a documentary theatre performance by Anuja Ghosalkar. A female actor, is haunted by the ghost of her great grandfather—a female impersonator in late 19th C Marathi theatre—every time she goes up on stage. It is the story of two actors separated by 100 years, one who plays a lady convincingly and the other, struggling to be a woman on stage.

Anuja Ghosalkar is a Bangalore based artist. She is the founder of Drama Queen, a Documentary theatre company, that focuses on personal histories & archival absences to extend the idea of theatre to create audacious work. Undocumented narratives, gender in performance, research and iterations around form and process are critical to her performance and pedagogical work. Drama Queen’s debut show, Lady Anandi was written while she was an artist-in-residence at Art Lab Gnesta, Sweden. In the Reading Room, she blurs the boundary between audience and performer, where 10 strangers read personal letters alongside public ones. Her newest work, Walk Back to Look was a site -specific performance commissioned by the Serendipity Arts Festival 2018, it offered a counter beat to the frenetic rhythm of Panjim Municipal Market and Kadamba bus stand. In the past, Anuja has worked at India Foundation for the Arts, Experimenta, in curating and teaching cinema, & as an independent researcher with the University of Westminster. 
 
Through Drama Queen, she is evolving a unique form of Documentary theatre in India. The aim is to build pedagogy around this form through an international workshop series, leading to Asia’s first festival of Documentary theatre in 2020.

​Schools keen to send their students for the show on 26
th Nov at Indus Valley World School, please contact tamali@thinkarts.co.in
