Mississauga Multilingual Fringe Festival 2025 - AN1

1) 11 Aug - At the End of Kaliyuga - 7pm-8pm
CA$16.95

At the End of Kaliyuga is an invitation for young audiences to take part in storytelling that feels both ancient and alive. This piece weaves clowning and Classical dance, creating a space where play and tradition meet. This show is my way of holding onto wonder in a world that often feels heavy. It’s for the children who show us how to keep imagining. Creating this piece reminded me that play is sacred, laughter is necessary, and old stories can make space for new dreams. Thank you for being here, I’m so glad we get to share this moment together.

2) 11 Aug - Ek Ladka Hua Karta Tha - 8.30pm-9.30pm
CA$16.95

"🎭 Ek Ladka Hua Karta Tha – The Story of Every Boy

“Kahani uski, woh jo sabka tha… par kabhi apna na ho paya.”


A poetic storytelling act that takes you on a rollercoaster of emotions, capturing the untold journey of a boy who laughed loud, dreamed big, but lived quietly—for everyone else.


One city. One interview. One tragic turn.

Three letters in his bag—one from his mother, one from his lover, and one from the job he never got to start.


This is not just his story—it’s the story of every boy who gives everything, yet never truly lives for himself.

Raw. Relatable. Real. A performance that stays with you long after the spotlight fades."

3) 11 Aug - Bandh Lifaafe - 10pm-11pm
CA$16.95

'Bandh Lifaafe' is not just a play, it's an evening of echoes, wine, and memories sealed in old envelopes of the heart.

Inspired by the delicate intricacies of Gulzar Saab’s storytelling, this piece is a lyrical exploration of three women navigating the crossroads of their lives, each carrying within her an unopened letter, a forgotten stanza, or an unsung verse. The stories they share are not dramatic in the conventional sense, but deeply emotional, quietly powerful, and intimately human.

4) 12 Aug - Gaumukhi - 7pm-8pm
CA$16.95

Gaumukhi (Cow) is an existentialist solo drama that follows a Cow, as she navigates the various identities imposed on her, with the identities she desires. Set in the months preceding, and during the Bombay riots of 1992, Gaumukhi blends lyrical prose with live Indian classical music to reflect the eponymous protagonist's journeys of loving and longing in the divisive, communal landscape of India.

5) 12 Aug - The Trial By Sita - 8.30pm-9.30pm
CA$16.95

The Trial by Sita is a story that asks questions we’ve all heard but rarely answered. What if Sita had the chance to speak today? What if she could challenge the laws, the silence, and the idea of sacrifice? This play is not about changing the past, but about finally listening to it. It's about the voices that were ignored, the strength that was hidden, and the truth that was never spoken out loud. If even one person feels heard because of this story, then it has done what it came to do.

6) 12 Aug - Out of Bounds - 10pm-11pm
CA$16.95

In out of bounds, we explore the raw, often uncomfortable terrain of men navigating midlife crises, set against the backdrop of fleeting connections with women half their age. The story is a candid portrait of masculine vulnerability, societal expectations, and the quest for meaning in an era where roles and relationships are rapidly shifting. Through humor, conflict, and moments of genuine introspection, the play examines how men—faced with aging, unfulfilled desires, and the pressure to perform—grapple with their own morality and identity.
