Behzti (Dishonour) Past her prime, Min happily spends her life caring for her frail, vicious mother, Balbir. Today, for the first time in years, they’re heading out to the local Sikh temple. In a community where public honour is paramount, is there any room for the truth?
Behud (Beyond Belief) A playwright attempts to make sense of her past by visiting the darkest corners of her imagination. Inspired by the events surrounding Behzti, Behud is the compelling story of an artist struggling to be heard.

Khandan (Family) Widowed matriarch Jeeto has a strong sense of her past and principles. She’s spent her life working hard and making sacrifices for her children. But eldest son Pal isn’t following in her footsteps. What happens when the legacy of a father collides with the dreams of his son?
Gurpreet Kaur Bhatti
Gurpreet Kaur Bhatti's first play Behsharam (Shameless) broke box office records when it was produced in 2001. Her second play Behzti (Dishonour) won the Susan Smith Blackburn Prize in 2005. Behzti rocked the world of theatre when it was cancelled after protests in Birmingham, forcing the playwright into hiding, sparking an international debate about offence and freedom of expression. In 2014, Khandan (Family) was co-produced by the Birmingham Rep and the Royal Court Theatre.
