You might remember Lushin Dubey from Delhi Belly -- she played Sonia's (Shenaz Treasurywala) mother -- but Dubey is also a well-known theatre actress.
You might remember Lushin Dubey from Delhi Belly -- she played Sonia's (Shenaz Treasurywala) mother -- but Dubey is also a well-known theatre actress. After having collaborated with director Arving Gaur to be part of solo plays on the plight of women across borders (Untitled) and child sexual abuse (Bitter Chocolate), she is back in Mumbai with another solo production -- this one about child deaths in India.
How did I Will Not Cry come about?
Around eight months ago, I was part of a panel discussion on the high number of child deaths in India. It was organised by Save the Children, and all us speakers pledged to do something about the issue. I, being a theatre professional, pledged to make a play on the subject. Arvind Gaur (director) and I then conceived
this play.
