This theatre production comprises four dramatic pieces, ranging from uproariously funny to bitter-sweet comedies, in which male characters rave and rant about their wretched lives, convinced that domineering, deceitful or manipulative women are at the root cause of the unhappy circumstances in which they find themselves. In the process, they come across as timid and gutless, revealing themselves to be as responsible as anything else for their inability to make something of their lives.
Recently performed at the MetroPlus Theatre Festival in Coimbatore, these four short plays-'Swan Song', 'A Reluctant Tragic Hero', 'The Harmfulness of Tobacco' and 'A Man with a Violent Temper'-are about self-deception and conceit, and our inability to come to terms with the bitter truth about ourselves.
