Hidden Fires
by Manjula Padmanabhan

Five powerful, hard-hitting monologues in which the playwright tackles head-on issues of violence, intolerance of others, narrow concepts of community and nation, each with a twist that lifts it into the realm of real drama.

Award-winning playwright Manjula Padmanabhan, in her attempt to come to grips with the violence of these times, excels in this suite of short one-handers which leaves the viewer both shaken and thoughtful.

Manjula Padmanabhan is a playwright, writer, illustrator and cartoonist living in New Delhi.

Her play Harvest was awarded the Onassis International Cultural Competition Prize for Theatrical Plays in 1997.
