Aadhi Raat Ke Baad (Hindi/ 90 mins) Wri. Dr. Shankar Shesh. Dir. Shilpi Marwaha. Set in the stillness of midnight, Aadhi Raat Ke Baad is a searing exploration of crime, justice, and human dignity. A judge and a thief collide in an unexpected, soul-baring conversation that gradually exposes the complex layers of morality and society. The play transcends courtroom binaries to become a profound meditation on empathy and social responsibility. As the night deepens, the line between victim and offender blurs, revealing a society complicit in the making of its ‘criminals’. With sharp, minimalistic staging and performances that simmer with restraint and urgency, Aadhi Raat Ke Baad is a wake-up call whispered in the quiet of night. Prod. Sukhmanch Theatre.
