mUrCHati


mUrChati - Resilience in trauma
is our big upcoming production for 2020/2021

We are very excited to present our work in progress at the MOHAI. This is part of our larger production "mUrChati" on the struggles with mental health. 

While "mUrChati" explores a lot of aspects of mental health including the challenges of caretakers and family, "BuddhiBhrama - a mind distrubed" only focuses on despression and anxiety.

Depression crept into my life - little by little. I was not even aware. I shrug away the thought that weighs me down. I reach out to the colourful thoughts around me but now they appear white, gray and black.

Where did they go? Why do I feel the weight of my own thoughts? I am overwhelmed. My body is locked and doesn't listen to me. I know how to swim and yet I drown. I can't breathe. My lungs are crushed. I struggle to reach out. One last attempt. One last call for Help.


The production will touch upon different aspects of mental health including impact on loved ones, care takers and solutions. One of the four acts will focus on the top issue currently facing mental health care providers - Anxiety and Depression.

As part of the brainstorming activities for mUrChati, we have picked this story thread focussing on anxiety and depression. We presenting it as "BuddhiBhrama - a mind disturbed" . Please join us.
