In early 2018 applications were invited for Refunction, a programme that aspires to encourage independent theatre artists and groups to create and develop new work, and offer them the space to present it at one of the city’s most vibrant cultural hubs. The programme for Refunction was decided through an open-call application process following which, a jury selected the final projects.
In November, Refunction begins its programming with a theatre production, titled Muhnochini.
About Muhnochini: Muhnochini is a devised solo piece that plays with forms of mythology and folklore. The narrative follows Tatha as he sets out on a mission to purge his community of this female beast that could inevitably lead to a path of self-destruction. Through Tatha’s relationships with the three female figures in the play - the mythical river Saraswati, his sister and Muhnochini - the play attempts at investigating the nature of positions of power and how they are upheld through religion, gender and social hierarchies.
