Event Description : Weekend Theatre. Ashvin Gidwani’s 'The Big Fat City' English Play. 
3 stories. 1 eventful night. A successful corporate couple with a new apartment in a fancy suburb of Mumbai… A TV star with a fan following and a troublesome marriage... An aspiring young actress from a small town with her possessive boyfriend… What’s behind their facades? What do they do when murder comes knocking at their door? The play is India’s first black comedy that offers you laughter, thrills and a little pill to chew on as you drive back home. 

Director’s Note:- Gallow’s Humour or Black Comedy is a tricky genre, one that we are not too familiar with in our theatre. Situations that have tragic consequences in our lives are usually approached with an appropriate degree of sobriety or decorum. But sometimes we say, feel or do the weirdest things. Things we would not approve of if we were to follow proper etiquette. As a director, I have reveled in my own script’s 
ability to make me go beyond appropriate conduct and see how funny we all really are. Laughing at ourselves, we learn to come closer to the truth of our lives.
An Old World Culture production.
