Now available in India. Forthcoming in the rest of the world in July 2026.

Six sharp, darkly comic works that stage the absurdities of our times with disarming clarity.

For Billion Amnesiacs leaps to 3985 CE, where lifespan is currency and two immortals find themselves the richest players in a ruthless market. In Mr Saptnekars Child, an infertile couple, divine clowns and an unexpected god-child turn a domestic crisis into a fable of ambiguity. Crossroads traps a city at a traffic signal between two riots, skewering identity politics and everyday complicity. They Went Ahead strands two urban men with a farmer couple in a post-mortem holding area, exposing the restless greed that powers the living—and the dead. Time and Time Again, Men Take to the Battlefield reframes the Bhima–Duryodhana duel through a pregnant widow’s relentless question: why do common people pay for every war? And in Exit, an octogenarian couple circle the boundary between life and death while a malfunctioning Yamadoot app toys with their ‘freedom’.

Across myth and metropolis, science fiction, politics and satire, Sathe’s plays fuse wit, invention and moral inquiry, and offer actors and readers a theatre of big questions—about memory, progress, violence and choice—told with irresistible theatrical flair.
