Danish Husain – acclaimed actor, director, poet and Dastangoi expert – comes to us straight from the hallowed Prithvi Theatre, Mumbai with Qissebaazi – an intimate recounting of fantasy, folk and historic tales interspersed with poetry, asides and anecdotes in Hindi and Urdu.

The Hoshruba Repertory, founded and headed by Danish Husain, has staged Qissebaazi in India, the US, and Australia, including performances at Harvard and Columbia, and at EnActe.
